UPDATE: Two books came in the mail today so I’m going to include them in this week’s update.
A Child Called “It” by Dave Pelzer (from BookMooch)
“A Child Called “It”: One Child’s Courage to Survive is Dave Pelzer’s 1995 autobiographical account of his maltreatment as a child by his alcoholic mother, Catherine Roerva, who singled him out much more so from among her other children as an object of abuse.” from Wikipedia
The Mongoose Diaries: Excerpts from a Mother’s First Year by Erin Noteboom
Received through Mini Book Expo. My second book through them.
In Tongues of the Dead by Brad Kelln
I won this through the 2nds Canadian Book Challenge! It’s DaVinci code-esk.
“IN TONGUES OF THE DEAD is a mystery thriller with religious undertones intended to evoke controversy. In the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library of Yale University lies a 400-year-old document that no one has been able to decipher.Twenty years ago the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) secretly placed a guard to watch over the document.When an autistic child begins to read from its pages, the Vatican will stop at nothing to keep its secrets from being revealed.” – from BradKelln.com
