IN MY MAILBOX - Week Ending February 12, 2011

I did not do a post last week because no new books came into the house!  This week was much better, thank goodness, because I actually ran out of books and ended up heading to Chapters in an attempt to find something to read.

This week, the books/dvds that have come into my house:

From Abebooks:

• In the Basement of the Ivory Tower by Professor X (ARC);
• What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen (ARC);

From The Book Depository:

• Ravenous by Dayna Macy;

From the Publishers:

• The Anti-Prom by Abby McDonald (ARC) from Random House Canada (for review)
• Surf Sea Sexy Stranger by Heidi Rice from Mills & Boon (for review)
• Molly Cooper's Dream Date by Barbar Hannay from Mills & Boon (for review)
• A great goody bag from Mills & Boon including a chocolate bar and tote bag (see picture)
• All you Get is Me by Yvonne Prinz from HarperCollins Canada (for a blog tour)

From the Montreal Library:

• Happens Every Day by Isabel Gillies (I read this one about two years ago and loved it!) she is publishing a second book in August, so I wanted to "brush up" on this one again
• Monk DVD (season 5) - I am slowly but surely working my way down the entire collection
• 8 Simple Rules DVD (season 2) I never got a chance to watch this show while it was on - so doing some catching up
• Crocodile DVD - continuing to rent "B" movies - including killer rats, snakes, birds and now, apparently crocodiles

Like I said - busy week - and nothing beats coming home to a package or 10! waiting for me. Thank goodness for my mailman who tries very hard to "shove" these books in my mailbox AND my wonderful suprintendant who basically is my "go to" person when it comes to package deliveries.  All the delivery people (from Canada Post to FedEx to Canpar to UPS to Purolator) seem to know that if I am not home, they should automatically ring his doorbell.  Thanks to my superintendant, I haven't had to visit the post office for months!!!!
