Mailbox Monday
March 28, 2010
Yes, I do know today’s Sunday, but Mailbox Monday is one of my favorite memes, so I didn’t want to skip it and I’m hosting a blog tour tomorrow. Since Marcia of The Printed Page puts her link up early, I decided I would too, just this week, so I don’t overwhelm you with posts tomorrow. Head on over to Marcia’s blog to see what everyone else got last week or to join in the fun. These are the books came into my house last week:
Monday
- Storm Prey by John Sandford came from Putnam Books for a TLC Book Tour on May 18
- The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire by C. M. Mayo was a win from The Book Studio
- Deliver Us From Evil by David Baldacci came from The Printed Page‘s Read it Forward program
Thursday
- The Bradshaw Variations by Rachel Cusk came from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
Friday
- Read, Remember, Recommend by Rachelle Rogers Knight came from Sourcebooks
- Venetia Kelly’s Traveling Show by Frank Delaney was a win from Savvy Verse and Wit
Saturday
- Jane’s Fame by Claire Harman came from Henry Holt
- Our Hart by Lloyd Lofthouse was sent to me by Jen

Read, Remember, Recommend sounds like it’ll come in handy!
Great! I don’t know which book is the best. I don’t mind taking any one off your hands.:) I want to read The Postmistress so badly. Enjoy all of your treasure.
I hope you enjoy CM Mayo’s book. I really liked it but it is heavy on history.
I’m glad you received the audiobook of Venetia Kelly’s Traveling show. You’ll have to let me know how you like delaney reading his own work.
I haven’t read a John Sanford book in so long….And the same goes for David Baldacci. That saying is so true…so many books, so little time

Our Hart is sooooo excellent! Storm Prey is one The Big Guy would love. I’ll have to be on the lookout for that one. Enjoy your Sunday.
Oh, you’re so lucky to have won Venetia Kelly’s Traveling Show! I don’t do audio but I really want to read that one.
Nice list and some great wins!
Kathy, lots of good one. I love Read, Remember, Recommend and hope to review it today; it is really great!
Enjoy your books.
I am looking forward to receiving my Storm Prey soon…I love that series! Lucas Davenport is THE DUDE! I also just reviewed Read, Review Recommend (coming April 2) – it is like a reader’s dream come true!
Read, Remember, Recommend looks interesting!
You get so many great books each week! It makes me wonder how many bookshelves you have.
I so much want to buy more bookshelves but we don’t really have wall space without doing some drastic re-arranging. I’m thinking I’m going to have to start getting more creative with my book storage.
What a great diverse list. Read, Remember, Recommend sounds useful, The Bradshaw variations sounds interesting, and Jane’s Fame seems like a nice take on studying Miss Austen.
So many books! I’m also wondering where you stash them all?
Or you must be a really fast reader? Hee hee!
Jane’s Fame catches my eye, have a good week!
Like the look of your books!
Mondays: Mailbox and all!
I’ve never read the Prey series by Sandford. Though it’s been on my mind for quite a while now. Enjoy your books!
As always, I love looking at your books that came for you!!
My goodness, I would be overwhelmed by that many books in the mail. I only got three last week and I am hoping to get to them in a timely manner – especially when so much yard work is calling my name!
Please visit my meme Sunday Sidelines
As usual I’m wondering where you’re stashing all these books. Our Hart was really good – I can’t remember if you read My Splendid Concubine or not. If you did, it’s even more enjoyable.
Jane’s Fame sounds great! Have fun with all of those books!
It’s always fun to stop by and see what you got in your mailbox. My husband would be totally jealous that you got a Baldacci book. He’s started reading his books. Right now, he’s reading The Camel Club.

Great loot! My post will be up in a while.
Happy Palm Sunday!
Oh you’re lucky! I tried to get one of Standford’s books but didn’t reply fast enough!
I was worrying for a minute that you had got confused with the days! You always have such a fabulous selection of books.
Kathy some great books and wins you got this past week.
I am waiting for the Read, Remember and Recommend to come in perhaps this week.
Enjoy your books and looking forward to your reviews.
Enjoy Venetia Kelly’s Traveling Show. I read this book and loved it but I have heard that Delaney’s reading voice is excellent and that it really adds to his audiobooks. Hope you like it!
Wow, you have a treasure trove of books!
I’m early this week, too. Here’s mine:

You’ve got a great stack of books! Enjoy! =)
Great week (and I know you have another one coming too!)
What a great stack of books. I’m interested to see what you think of Read, Remember, Recommend .
Kathy, good to see your mailbox early. I’m not familiar with many of these, but they sound good and I hope you’ll enjoy them.
You got lots of things I’m unfamiliar with–can’t wait to learn about them.
I got Jane’s Fame too!!
Great stack of books. Enjoy them all!
Lucky you! I always look forward to the next Prey book.
Lovely books, I’ve only heard of Venetia Kelly’s Traveling Show. Hope you enjoy all.
Jane’s Fame looks good to me, and I have Deliver Us from Evil to read, also.
Hi Kathy! All these are new-to-me books. Happy reading!
Read, Remember, Recommend is a popular MM book this month. Looks good. My post is here.
So many wonderful reads! I am looking some of these books up now! Enjoy them Kathy!
Looks like you received some great books. Hope you enjoy them!
Nice mailbox. Jane’s Fame looks good.
I’ve seen Read, Remember and Recommend around the blog world. It looks like a book that I would like to read — I’m always looking for more advice as to what to read.
I really want Read, Remember, and Recommend. I’ve heard it is a useful book. Enjoy all your new books!
The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire sounds like a great read. it sounds like its historically based (which i would looovvveee). Check out my mailbox here.

Great stack! Happy reading. My mailbox is at The Crowded Leaf.
Great books there – I really want to read Read, Remember, Recommend and Deliver Us From Evil.
Enjoy all of your new books Kathy…The Last Prince of the Mexican Empire looks good to me!
Jane’s Fame sounds really good. I hope you enjoy Venetia Kelly as much as I did. Happy reading!
I got “Read, Remember, Recommend” last week and love it!!!! Enjoy!
David Baldacci writes the most fast paced novels. They almost seem like a film to me! Have a wonderful time with your books.
Nice mailbox, Kathy! I do hope that you enjoy Our Hart. It was a really interesting read, although I had some problems with the female lead!
My husband is a David Baldacci fan. Let me know if this is a must get for him. I know that he is currently reading a nonfiction book, so I have at least another week before he needs a new book.
I received Shadow Prey for the TLC book tour and you have just reminded me that I need to blog about that!
I’v e been seeing that Read, Remember, Recommend all over the place! Enjoy your loot! Here’s my Mailbox.
Nice group of books. I have the RRR journal too. I looked it over and it is really a great idea. Happy reading.
I just got the RRR journal too, as you know. Enjoy all your books!
Great mailbox! Enjoy your books.
I am soooo jealous of Storm Prey! I love the Prey series and I was lucky enough to meet John Sanford at a signing a few years ago and get a couple of mine autographed. I’m looking forward to the review!
Read, Remember, Recommend sounds good but from the descriptions it sounds better for those who read lots of fiction rather than me.
Looks like a busy week for your mailbox Kathy. Enjoy your reads.
I love the Prey series by John Sandford. Would love to read your review on how this one measures up for you.
I love John Sandford!
