Mailbox Monday

Mailbox Monday is a weekly event where we share our latest book arrivals. Link up and find new mailboxes to stalk at the Mailbox Monday blog. It’s been a while I’ve shared a book haul, so I’m playing a little catch up here. Let’s do this thing!

Here are some of the books that have made their way to me in the last month or so:

    Glad to see you again! 🙂 I hope things are going well for you!

    I’m curious to know if you’ve read Paula Brackston before, since I’ve been eyeing her books for a while.
    Well, That Was Awkward has an excellent title that makes me want to read it, even though middle grade isn’t something I read a lot.
    Hope you have a great reading time with all these new books! 🙂

    “That’s it”? Really nice mailbox haul. Wayfarer looks like a chunckster. I think you missed The Road to Enchantment in your link list. Aftermath looks/sounds intense.
    Happy Reading!
