Mail Interlude

Before continuing my tales about my trip to Normandy, here's some of the awesome mail I received lately.


Laura and Sparky sent me a new friend!


Beanie sent me a cool key ring with a trolley token.


I received a package full of books from Jeffe.
She managed to snag me some signed books, and even some ARCs at RT2014. She also sent some swag and a signed copy of her own book The Mark of The Tala.


I got three books from R. Jackson-Lawrence. I won these at the Armchair BEA event.


Jess Haines sent me an ARC of Enslaved by the Others.
She also included a cover-flat and a key ring.


The key ring had a small pair of cuffs on it. How cool!


Thanks everyone!

Zombies and Chocolate in my Mail

I had awesome mail today!
Jess Haines send me an ARC of her next book Forsaken by the Others, a small sampler of her first book and chocolate!


The ARC was signed as well.
There are zombies in this story, so I kept calling it Zombified by the Others while Jess was writing it and as you can see she was kind enough to indulge me.

Thanks Jess!

Stalking the Others in My Mail

Yes, I've been boring these last few days.
I'm totally addicted to Mass Effect 3.
It's amazing and I just can't stop playing it.

But there was awesome mail today that just might be able to tear me away from my game:

Jess Haines send me an Advanced Reader Copy of her next book 'Stalking the Others' and some signed cover flats as well!
Jess' books are really beautiful and cool: they got vampires, werewolves and other supernatural creatures and an amazing heroine who has to deal with all those creatures.

Thanks Jess!

Lots of Treats

I had a really great birthday and when we got back to work on Tuesday my owner and me brought chocolate as a late birthday treat for our co-workers.

It turned out that one of our co-workers also had a birthday and brought treats as well, so we had lots and lots of treats.

Yum!

When we got home there was a present for us send by Jess. She send us chocolate-peanutbutter treats and a coverflat of her next book. What a cool surprise!

Thanks Jess!

Werewives and Tentacles in My Mail

Today I had more cool mail.
Jess Haines send me an Advance Reader Copy of The Real Werewives of Vampire County, an anthology with 4 stories of which one is written by Jess.

She signed the book for us and even drew a tentacle with a monocle!

Thanks Jess!
You are awesome!

Chocolate and Books

There was a huge package today for me and Voodoo Bride from Jess Haines.

We got the package because Voodoo Bride won a contest on Jess'blog and because Jess is awesome!



There was tons of yummie chocolatey goodness in the package. We had to put it in containers to keep it all from taking over the available space on the dining-table.



Oh! Chocolate pretzels! And even more yummie chocolate

And Ranch dressing. According to Jess it's delicious if you dip your french fries in it. I will give that a try. Usually I use mayonaise.

And last, but certainly not least: Three signed books!

Taken by the Others is for a friend of ours as we already have a signed copy of that book, but the others are all ours!!!

What an awesome package!!!

Thanks Jess!!!
(and Binah too as I understand she helped with picking out what chocolates to include.)

Say: Are Those Tentacles?

There were two packages waiting for us when we got home from work today. One of them had tentacles on it!

There was even a Sullivan wannabe tentacle!
Isn't that cool: I have tentacle fans!

And look what was inside the tentacle package:
A review copy of Deceived by the Others by Jess Haines!

There was another tentacle inside the book and a message for us and Cthulhu.

And look what was in the other package!
A review copy of Alien in the Family by Gini Koch and cards and magnets as well!



What a fabulous mail day!
Now I'll have to decide which book to read first.

A big thanks to Jess, Binah and Gini for these awesome books and tentacles and all!!


Cthulhu approves!
