Mailbox Monday
June 7, 2010
I’m still trying to catch my breath from New York and my unexpected visit to my parents, so this week has really flown by. That means it’s time for Mailbox Monday again! Thanks to Marcia of The Printed Page for hosting this fun meme! I welcomed these books into my home last week:
Tuesday:
- An Unfinished Score by Elise Blackwell was a win from Unbridled Books
- Captivity by Deborah Noyes was a win from Unbridled Books
- Last Night in Montreal by Emily St. John Mandel was a win from Unbridled Books
Thursday
- Shadow of the Swords by Kamran Pasha came from Simon & Schuster
Friday
- Sea Change by Aimee Friedman came from Big Honcho Media
I’m also including a photo of the books I got at BEA – I carried some back with me and some came in the mail.
What books did you welcome into your home last week?

Enjoy your new books. The Last Night in Montreal is a great read! I’m planning on reading The Singer’s Gun soon.
*gasp* You got REVOLUTION by Jennifer Donnelly!!! Out of every book you got, that one is the one I’m most curious/envious about. I looooove her! I hope you get to read it soon, I really want to know how it is!
Lucky you with all those fabulous Unbridled wins!
WOW, and we’ll expect to to have read and reviewed them all in 2010….LOL enjoy
Oh my…….you have quite of reading to do !!!!! How did you carry alll those books home? And when are you going to read them? I always like stopping by on Mondays to see what books you got because there usually are some good ones…so there must be a lot of good ones in that pile. Happy Reading!!!
That is quite the stack of BEA books! Is that Countdown I see at the bottom of the left hand pile? I hope if it is that you enjoy it!
When you stack them up like that, it looks like a lot! I separated mine into piles based on type and it wasn’t as intimidating!
I enjoyed Last Night in Montreal. What a great stack from BEA…I saw Lowcountry Summer in there. Can’t wait to read that one!!
OMG you scored the motherlode at the BEA! Can’t wait to start reading your reviews/thoughts.
Welcome back!
I’m trying very hard not to covet that incredible stack of BEA books
Looks like you won’t be in short supply of reading material for a while.
Wow! That is an impressive stack of books – I can’t wait to read your reviews!
Have a good week!
Too many books came into my home last week Kathy…
Oh well…. what fun!
Captivity is on my wish list hope you enjoy it! Have a super week.
WOW!Great BEA haul! Hope you are enjoying them.
Wow what an awesome stack of books! That would make me want to quit work to stay home reading all day.
I got a copy of Shadows of the Swords as well and am very curious to give it a try. It looks like you got an excellent stack of books, what with your trip to N.Y. and your mailbox contents! I will be excited to hear what you think of all of them!!
The BEA books — that is impressive! I think I would lock myself in a closet for a week with those and be perfectly happy.
Your house must be overflowing! I think you’re in for a lot of good reading ahead – and I too can’t wait to read Revolution (although I don’t have it!)
Oh my! Where do you put them all? :0) I see quite a few in your stack that look like fun. The ones in your mailbox look good too.
Happy reading!
Kathy I see what you mean now, gee it feels like we were at different BEA’s LOL. I think we only have about 5 books in common from BEA. Oh I see a few that were on my list to get that I didn’t get.
Enjoy them
Wow, you have definitely got some great reading there.

Whoa! You’ve gotten so many books from BEA! I wouldn’t be able to bring all of that home.
I see you have a copy of The Duff, The Brave, For the Win . . . I missed out on a couple of books from BEA that I would have loved to have, but in no way am I disappointed. I had a lot of fun. =)
Where will you put all these new books? I still haven’t made bookshelf space for mine yet.
I can’t believe your stack of BEA books. That is just an amazing stack. I don’t know how you’re going to find the time to get to all these books but I’ll enjoy hearing about them. Are there some more exciting than others?
Holy cow! Totally jealous over Revolution and Cleopatra! Enjoy your new reads!
