Mr. Mailman is a relatively new Tales of Whimsy feature. Periodically when there is a book in route I am anxiously hoping to find when I get home in my mailbox - I will feature Mr. Mailman.
Oh Mr. Mailman! Please do bring me Gateway today!
Product description:
"As a Chinese adoptee in St. Louis, teenage Daiyu often feels out of place. When an elderly Asian jewelry seller at a street fair shows her a black jade ring—and tells her that "black jade" translates to "Daiyu"—she buys it as a talisman of her heritage. But it’s more than that; it's magic. It takes Daiyu through a gateway into a version of St. Louis much like 19th century China. Almost immediately she is recruited as a spy, which means hours of training in manners and niceties and sleight of hand. It also means stealing time to be with handsome Kalen, who is in on the plan. There's only one problem. Once her task is done, she must go back to St. Louis and leave him behind forever..."
Mr. Mailman is a hybrid of Waiting on Wednesday by Breaking the Spine and In My Mailbox by the Story Siren. Please feel free to grab the logo and feature your Mr. Mailman request on your site. Please leave a link to your Mr. Mailman request in the comments.

I love it! Very cute idea Juju. I hope it comes soon :)
Good morning, Juju! I have a little something for you over at my blog today. ;-)
I love your idea of Mr.Mailman it's so cute! I also wait anxiously for the mailman to deliver my books whenever I order some.
I'm actually not waiting for anything at the moment... and it makes me sad. :(
Gateway sounds gooood. Oh, Mr. Mailman, please bring Juju Gateway today! hehe
I love Sharon Shinn's YA books!! I hadn't heard of this one yet!!
Never heard of this one before...but it sounds intriguing! I love stories that include spies
;)
Thanks for sharing this one. I always fill this flash of disappointment when there are no packages in my mailbox when I'm waiting for some :(
I am not picky, I love all packages... so send me something! lol
I'm waiting for several things to come. I understand your pain.
Ohh, nice! Gorgeous cover too. :)
I'm waiting for Fallen, Perfect Chemistry, Magic Under Glass, and The Dark Divine, though they won't come until Dec 22, when TDD and MUG come out. Can't wait!
I adore the cover of this book. In fact, I'll probably pick it up without reading the synopsis based just on the cover haha.
This is SUCH a cute idea! I hope your book comes soon...and you reminded me how excited I am that Fallen and Nanny Returns are en route to my house!
This one looks like fun and I love the cover!
I love the girl spy angle and the cover is very eye-catching!
I'll probably do another Mr. Mailman on Saturday. I'm just too busy right now to do any posts. My posts throughout the week were scheduled posts :)
Catcha later!
Too cute! I love your Mr Mailman post. I am actually pleased with myself because I am not waiting for any books to be delivered. I want to reduce my TBR pile.
Our mailman is on strike, so I hope he comes soon with my mail....
Wonderful Idea! I hate he suspense
Hi Juju this is the last day for my contest and I wanted to let you know that only one of the teasers is mine. Please choose one or I won't know how to enter you. Good luck!
Thanks juju, I had that table made many years ago. For a family of 4 no one could understand me giving up all my space for a table that would seat 10, but I love it and would not change it for anything. You would not believe how much of the time it is full...Merry Christmas!
I hope you get it soon! I sent it to you last Saturday. Please excuse the envelope I used. I was too cheap to buy a new one and reused an envelope instead. Hehe. But I have stocked up on envelopes now!
Aha! Got a Mr. Mailman post: http://www.cherrymischievous.com/2009/12/mr-mailman-shadowfae.html
