This Mailbox Monday sounds like a great idea – maybe I should add some of these to my list of women writers to read this year. Enjoy!
Can’t see the other books. I’m dying to read Little Black Dress by Susan McBride. Can’t wait to read your review. I would like to read Forgotten too. It sounds really good.
State of wonder and Little Black Dress are the two I am very keen to know more about.
State of Wonder sounds fantastic. Enjoy them all Kathy
Great haul!! I have State of Wonder on hold at the library – number 32, so I’ll read it in September
I am very excited at the prospect of a new Luis Alberto Urrea book to read! Enjoy your books.
Very cool cookbooks!
I have just finished Forgotten and will be reviewing it on the weekend. It was good!
Enjoy your books
All new ones to me again. That is the fun part
Great books this week
I like the idea behind The Berghoff Cafe — the reuse, reinvent, recycle mantra is a good one, and one I use alot around here according to my family, lol.
Little Black Dress sounds like something I would like to read; I look forward to your review.
I just finished Next to Love last week and thought it was wonderful. Hope you enjoy it too!
I see you have NEXT TO LOVE also.
Nice Mailbox.
BTW…that bookstore in Hoboken definitely had character….and fashioned in European style. It was great.

Yay, I can say yes this week! I received a book in the mail that I bookmooched for my John Cusack Challenge: Ekstein’s Rites of Spring.
I picked up Next to Love and Queen of America at BEA and have heard good things about both – enjoy your week!
Wonderful mailbox. Have a great reading week. I received only two books in my mailbox!!
Here is my Monday post!
Nice batch of books this week, Kathy. Enjoy them all!
Ooh, Little Black Dress is on my wish list. Curious about the cookbook too.
Nice variety Kathy! Enjoy them!
I’m looking forward to Next to Love, which I’ve preordered…and State of Wonder looks good. I like Ann Patchett.
Enjoy your books! And thanks for stopping by my blog.
I’m really curious about State of Wonder! Great mailbox, Kathy!
I see you have three books that I am still waiting to receive for review. Can’t wait to read your reviews!
Wow, all those books look great! Enjoy. I think I have a copy of Forgotten…
I’m excited to hear about State of Wonder and Little Black Dress, both books I’m anxious to read. Looks like a good mail box week!!
Am I too forward in asking what you do with all the book you read after you’ve read them?
I can’t wait to read your thoughts on State of Wonder. Happy reading!
I have been hearing good things about State of Wonder, and it’s also awesome that you got a couple of cookbooks! I hope that you enjoy all of your new reads, and I look forward to hearing about them soon!
great mailbox! i’m left green with envy from looking at all of the amazing books you got. hope you enjoy them all!
Great books once more! I’m particularly envious of your copy of forgotten, I can’t wait to read that one!
I am loving all the State of Wonder reviews–I really want to read it! Enjoy your new books!
The Little Black Dress sounds interesting, enjoy!
I can’t wait to hear what you think of Little Black Dress.
What a great stack of books. Enjoy!
Oh, that Berghoff Cafe cookbook makes me hungry for one of their reubens!
Fun books! I’ve been wanting to read State of Wonder.
I am drawn to the cookbook right away! I am a cookbook nut! I am curious about State of Wonder. It seems to be in any mailboxes this week. I have heard Bel Canto is good so hopefully State of Wonder will be good also. Enjoy!
Great books Kathy. I am jealous that you got Forgotten and Little Black Dress. Enjoy the books and I think we will all have to head to Kathy’s for some great cooking.
I’m jealous you received Queen of America by Luis Alberto Urrea. Enjoy your books.
I am interested in Everyday Grilling if they are easy to follow recipes. I don’t like a lot of work and/or thought to be involved.
You received a very nice variety of books in your mailbox. I’m especially interested in reading Forgotten. Enjoy your haul!
Great load of books! I’m glad that Leap arrived so quickly! Enjoy!
another perfect mailbox. You must have a mailman who’s in love with you
So many great books! I’m looking forward to State of Wonder.
Enjoy your reading!
Great mailbox! Happy reading!
I’ve heard such good things about State of Wonder. I’ll be curious to see what you think of it.
State of Wonder is definitely near the top of my list.
Enjoy your new books Kathy…State of Wonder especially interests me!
Very nice mailbox, Kathy. The cookbooks sounds especially good (I must be hungry!).
Wow quite a haul.
I have Next to Love too. Great mailbox. Looking forward to your reviews.

These are all great-looking books, but I’m totally jealous of “State of Wonder”
Enjoy all of the lovely new reads!

What a fun stack of books! I loved State of Wonder!
Looks like some great books. I’m still trying to catch up.
I somehow missed this post yesterday, sorry about that. You have quite a few comenters, though!
State of Wonder and Next to Love sound wonderful! Queen of America looks interesting, too. Two cook books, too!
Happy reading & eating!
What a great mailbox! I hope you enjoy all of them
I enjoy following Susan McBride on FB as she keeps us updated about LBD. Hope you like it!
What a fabulous stack. I’d like to recreate it on my nightstand!
I’m always interested in new cookbooks. Please share what you make from them!
You always get the best looking books…enjoy!
I am so excited about State of Wonder! I’ve been waiting to read my next Ann Patchett. Enjoy your books!
Ann Patchett is such a wonderful author! I hope you enjoy State of Wonder
Can’t wait to find out what you think of State of Wonder!!! It’s veryyy high on my wishlist. Almost caved and bought a copy this weekend, but I hate reading hardbacks, so it’ll have to be an e-book purchase.
Hope you enjoy Next to Love as much as I did. Looking forward to your thoughts on State of Wonder.
I love Susan McBride and can’t wait to read Little Black Dress.
Can’t wait to see what you think of Next to Love!
What a wonderful mailbox filled with good books. Enjoy!
