Has anyone received The Mullah's Storm? Still waiting for my copy. I see no one has it listed here so I'm guessing it just hasn't been sent out yet.

I received How to Survive a Natural Disaster by Margaret Hawkins about a week ago. Sorry I don't have the exact date, or all the information; I didn't realize this thread existed.

So excited that my July book arrived. June is still MIA. The envelope was open but I think that's because of customs.
