In My Mailbox Monday (10)

In My Mailbox (IMM) was started by The Story Siren a few years back, and is a great way for bloggers to give the books they are reading (or are planning to read) a quick mention.

I've been out of town for weeks, so my mailbox has been on hold. Now that we're back, I've got an IMM of epic proportions. That said, I'm not going to comment on ALL of the books since my last IMM (on June 20th), but just highlight the ones I'm most excited about.
