Mail Call: Rock On, Sisterfriend!
First off, be sure to check out my interview with author David Grant. Remember the books that arrived in my PO Box, covered in beer? You can find out all about them now — and enter to win one of two copies that aren’t covered in beer.
While we’re rockin’ along with the books that like to party, two more rock books showed up for me this week. Both came from my good friend Mary at BookHounds. Mary’s passion for music is every bit as big as mine, only she gets to live it more than I do. Which is very sad for me.
But there are books! And books are what it’s all about.
First is Maria Semple’s This One is Mine, which I’ve been drooling over and lusting for. Mary had an extra, so it headed my way (inside of a fantastic package of stuff from the recent South by Southwest extravaganza).
Keeping it company was a copy of Jim Lindberg’s Punk Rock Dad. I hadn’t even HEARD of this book until Mary asked if I’d read it. Of course, it’s a memoir, so that explains some of the radio silence, but… hell yeah, I’m gonna sit down with this puppy and devour!
While you’re waiting for me to read and review these books here at Rocks ‘n Reads, be sure to stop in at The Story Siren and The Printed Page for more Mailbox Mondays and In My Mailbox posts. It’s fun to see the variety of what everyone’s reading; it really reminds you that these days, there are books for every taste.
Awesome books!
Here’s my IMM for the week: http://bookielaura.blogspot.com/2010/04/in-my-mailbox-42410.html
I hope you have an awesome Sunday!
