The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel is the book that I was looking for some time back to mention in my Friday Finds, but I couldn’t remember the name at that time. Your books look fabulous, as always.
I’ve been looking forward to A Friend of the Family…can’t wait to hear what you think!
Looks like a good week again. You always have such new and interesting books coming your way, I do love to find new discoveries.
Italian for Beginners — I think I saw a movie? That’s one I’d be interested in reading, so I look forward to your review.
Nice selection of books this week! Enjoy!
I also won My Name is Will but it hasn’t come yet. But mail seems to take 2 or 3 days longer to get to my state – we must have done something to offend the postmaster!
Nicely varied list this week.
I hope to read and review The Woodstock Story this week after reading your review. A Friend of the Family sounds good too; enjoy
Nice finds in your mailbox last week.
I also found The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel in my mailbox and can’t wait to start it.
Happy reading!
Nice diverse bunch o’ books. Italian for Beginners looks excellent. I hope you have a good week and enjoy all your new books.
I received the Woodstock Story book some time ago…and we both received the private papers!
Just going by title, that book, My Name is Will, struck me.
Looks like you have quite a selection of books. You get so many every week, do you ever get caught up on your reading?

These look like some good books you received…I should also have Private Papers in my mailbox soon.
Nice selection of books this week. Enjoy!
Italian for Beginners is one I would love to read sometime.
I love this selection of books. Can I come visit your mailbox sometime?
A great selection! I am looking forward to My Name is Will as well.
Enjoy them! My Mailbox is up at THe Burton Review.
The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel looks like a book I would read.
I haven’t seen the Woodstock book before, but it looks interesting. I had to click on the link and see if it was about the musical event or the cartoon bird.
Great Mailbox. I want that Italian book! Happy Monday.
No shortage of riches here–enjoy!
I can’t wait to hear what you think of Italian for Beginners. I really enjoyed it
Wonderful mailbox last week!
Mondays: What’s up?
I’m liking the sound of that Woodstock book, and Italian for Beginners has gotten my interest as well. Nice booty!
What great titles this week. I got a glimpse of The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel at Serena’s house this weekend, and it looks really good. Happy reading!

I am jelous of My Name is Will and Italian for Beginners. Lucky girl!
Great books you got Kathy but you didn’t list what you got from Julie…LOL
Nothing in common this week. Here’s hoping for a good week this week.
I am going to be reading The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel shortly, and I am looking forward to it. I hope you enjoy it as well, and am looking forward to your review.
Like Cindy I want to know what you got from Julie! Enjoy your books!
Those all look good!! Have fun learning Italian!
Oh, I’ve heard of Italian for Beginners. At first, I thought it was a language guide until I read the synopsis.
Enjoy your books! =)
I have a copy of “My Name Is Will” too. I need to read it sometime as it looks to be a good one.
You’ve some great books there!
Happy reading!
Thanks for the mention! I hope you enjoy them!
I just went to an author event/book signing for Algonquin Books and Lauren Grodstein was there! She’s soooo nice! I bought her book that night. I cannot wait to read it (Unfortunately, I have a LONG TBR pile) Can’t wait to read your review!!
Have fun reading all those wonderful books!!

You received a great bunch of books! Eclectic too. I’m hoping to get The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel.
Great books! I’m especially drooling over the Woodstock book (great review too).
Terrific mailbox this week!
Wow! How do you keep up with so many books?
Wow, you’ve got lots of great books there! Enjoy!
Italian for Beginners caught my eye – I love all things Italian.
Great haul!
