Mailbox Monday - July 10



Mailbox Monday is a meme started by Marcia of To Be Continued. Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came in their mailbox during the last week. It now has a permanent home at the Mailbox Monday blog.

Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles, and humongous wish lists.

Happy Monday! Our day started out with a thunderstorm and a tornado warning where we were instructed to seek shelter. Doesn't that sound like fun?

Since we are on vacation my mailbox is very far away this week. That's okay, I've been catching up on my reading. Probably won't have anything new when we get home, but I need to order the next two books in Duffy Brown's Consignment Shop Mystery series. These characters are addicting.

Watched The Girl on the Train last night. Good, but a little creepy. Also watched The Zookeeper's Wife  and now I want to read that book.

Here are some shots from vacation:






See you back at home by this time next week. Have fun!

  1. I have seen The Girl on the Train a couple of times...it is on my shelf in Amazon Prime, so I'm sure I'll watch it again.

    I also have The Zookeeper's Wife there, but haven't yet watched it. Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog. Enjoy your week!

  2. Looks like you're having an awesome vacation. I want to both read the book and see the movie of The Zookeeper's Wife.

  3. Love your vacation pics. I didn't read it but saw the movie version of Girl on the Train. I thought it was ok but not great. Maybe the book was better.

    1. Mary, I wasn't quite sure about the movie in the beginning because it has a lot of sex scenes and F-bombs--which aren't my thing. The storyline itself was good, but really could have done without all that.

  4. You dog is adorable and reminds me of our old dog.

    I really liked the movie of The Zookeeper's Wife but don't think it did very well at the box office. I'd like to read the book too.

    1. Thanks. We think Theo is pretty cute. He's doing much better on vacation than we thought, so hopefully those good habits carry over to home.

  5. Nice photos...thanks for sharing.

    I haven't read or seen the movies to either book.

    Have a great week, and I hope your mailbox was packed this past week.

  7. I've seen and read The Girl on the Train. Both good...in different ways. I can't wait to watch The Zookeeper's Wife and read the book. If you're interested, War Through the Generations is hosting a read-a-long of the book in September.

  8. Theo is very cute. We have our second Rat Terrier - they are so smart! The pictures are very nice - pretty sunset! Have safe travels. Now I will have to go check out Duffy Brown mysteries. Happy Reading.
