Mailbox Monday


Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday this holiday weekend! MM was created by Marcia, who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring event (details here).

Yolanda at Notorious Spinks Talks is hosting in September.  One of my favorite things about participating in blog events is finding new-to-me blogs, like Yolanda's. Please pay her a visit!

I got one book last week, from the LibraryThing Early Reviewer program:



Red Fortress: History and Illusion in the Kremlin by Catherine Merridale, author of Ivan's War.

Red Fortress looks terrific.  From the description, I take it that the author had access to newly-available primary source material to write a history of Russia using the Kremlin as the organizing tool. Hubby already has his eye on this one.
