On Tuesday I'm leaving for New York to attend BookExpo. I'll be writing up posts on my impressions of this year's BookExpo. Hope to see some of you there!
Mailbox Monday

Two books for review in my mailbox last week:

It's Monday! What Are You Reading? is a place to meet up and share what you have been, are and about to be reading over the week. It's a great post to organise yourself. It's an opportunity to visit and comment, and er... add to that ever growing TBR pile! So welcome in everyone. This meme started with J Kaye's Blog and then was taken up by Sheila from Book Journey. Sheila then passed it on to Kathryn at the Book Date.
