Mailbox Monday #111

MM

This mailbox represents the last two weeks, which have been very slow, but I am not complaining…I have a lot to read already!  I’m sure your very surprised by that!

Anyway, I received one item through Netgalley which I can’t wait to read: Jane: The Woman Who Loved Tarzan by Robin Maxwell.  This comes out in September, so I won’t be posting my review until then, but I’m quite excited to read it.  I have enjoyed the previous books that I have read by Robin Maxwell.  Here is the book blurb:

JANE by Robin Maxwell is the first reimagining of the legendary Tarzan story from Jane’s point of view, and the first version by a female writer that’s fully authorized and endorsed by the Edgar Rice Burroughs estate. Set in the early 1900s, JANE is both a page-turning adventure novel (complete with lush jungle settings, a devious villain, and turn-of-the-century science) and an unlikely yet intimate love story.

Sounds good, right?

So what came in your mailboxes this week?

 

Mailbox Monday is on a monthly blog tour and for the month of June it is being hosted by Burton Book Review.

    1. I like how with her prior novel (O Juliet) and with this one she is taking on iconic literary characters and setting it in the historical world. It gives us more to the stories we know!
