In My Mailbox (9)

In My Mailbox is a meme created by The Story Siren.

 I love seeing what everyone got in their mailbox.  I hope that you enjoy it as well.  I had a great week this week for books.  My TBR pile keeps growing and growing and I didn’t get much reading done this week.  Adjusting to everyone being back to school and work was a little tough.  And I took my best friend to the Detroit Pistons game last night for her birthday. Watch for a post about this because it was AMAZING!

This weeks question is:
What book(s) have you discovered lately from someone’s book blog?

I have discovered a million books on different blogs.  Since I am so new to blogging and really just starting to step outside of my closed little circle of what I read I am discovering so much.  I really love that everyone is so welcoming.

This weeks question is:
What book influenced or changed your life? How did it influence/change you?

While this is not a for pleasure book, Fish by Stephen C. Lundin, Ph.D., Harry Paul and John Christensen.  It just can at the right point in my life and career that made me realize that I was not happy with what I was doing and there was a better way to do things.  While it is a bit silly the lessons are so real.  If you work in a wastepit of a job, you might want to check this book out.
