Welcome to Mailbox Monday, a meme started by Marcia of To Be Continued.

It’s been a long time since I did a Mailbox Monday post. Sadly, I have not been receiving too many books of late. I’ve been rather disenchanted with the books that I did get, and well, things have been very ho-hum when it comes to my reading lately.

But last week, I got an enchanting package from Penguin Random House that shook off my recent ennui with book blogging. Here are the books I got:

  • Fool Me Once – Harlan Coben
  • Hedon – Priyanka
  • India’s War – Srinath Raghavan

I already zipped through Fool Me Once – a thriller over the weekend, and it made for fairly enjoyable reading, and am now on to Hedon, which is also a winner so far – light and fun.

India’s War is a massive non-fiction chunkster that talks about the role of Indians in World War 2. It’s not a subject that’s been much written about, and so I am especially looking forward to it.

So, these are the books I got recently. What books did you get recently? What are you looking forward to reading?

    I have to read India’s War! It’s definitely something that is written very little about and I’ve always wondered about it. So I’m glad there’s a book about it finally. Do let me know what you think of it once you read it.

  3. I got Mary Roach’s Grunt in the mail this week (yay, I can finally actually read Mary Roach!) as well as that book Mother Tongue, about the lady who moved her family all around the world and learned a whole bunch of languages. An excellent week of book-getting!

    I’m sure I could learn a lot from India’s War. Harlan Coben’s books are always good.
