The House on Salt Hay Road and The End of the Wasp Season sound really good. I haven’t heard of them before. Hope you’ve a wonderful week in reading!
As usual a fat mailbox – enjoy them all.
I just looked up The House on Salt Hay Road and I think it is definitely one I would love. Love the cover of it too.
Great mailbox! All the books are new to me but The End of the Wasp Season sounds particularly good. Enjoy!
The House on Salt hay Road has my interest.
Wow, a great collection! I’m seeing the Celia Rivernbark book around – the title certainly is a showstopper!
Never heard of any of them, but all sound interesting. Have a great week!
They sound like a good read. Enjoy.
Don’t know any of these but I also like the sound of The House on Salt Hay Road. Happy reading!
What an interesting mailbox, I have not seen any ot these before. I hope you enjoy them all!
Ooh, you got some great ones this week. The End of Wasp Season and The House on Salt Hay Rd sound intriguing. Celia Rivenbark is a hoot! Have a great week, Kathy, and happy reading!
The last one sounds like a phrase my father would often say as a joke when he saw someone large, (unkind I admit, which is not at all his spirit). I wonder what that book will be about.
These are all new titles for me. The House on Salt Hay Road and The Astral interest me.
These are all new books to me. I hope you enjoy them all!
I have The Astral…looking forward to it. And I’m interested in The End of the Wasp Season, because I’ve read a couple of books by Denise Mina…scary!
Enjoy your books!
Here’s MY MONDAY MEMES POST
Your books look great and I look forward to hearing more about them, as a lot of them are unfamiliar to me.
The House on Salt Hay Road sounds good! Enjoy your new books and have fun in Blacksburg!
You Don’t Sweat Much sounds like a hoot! Enjoy your books.
Great pile there! Where will you begin? The End of the Wasp Season looks intriguing, and I found some interesting teen titles over at Hachette too when I hit your link. Thanks for that!
I gave The Astral to my dad for his birthday and I plan on borrowing it from him someday when I’m in the mood for that kind of read.
What a great mailbox. You Don’t Sweat Much? LOL
Come on over and see what was in my mailbox this week!
These are all new to me titles. You Don’t Sweat Much for a Fat Girl sounds hilarious. Enjoy your books!
I’m looking forward to THE HOUSE ON SALT ROAD!
Another great haul for you. I hope they are all worth the read. Have a great week.
Oh, The End of Wasp Season looks really good, as do a few of your others. I have also been curious about The House on Salt Road. Great set of books for you this week, Kathy!
Mmmm, yummy stack, this week. Enjoy!
Wow — all books/authors that are new to me! Looking forward to your reviews!
I hadn’t heard of these; the first two sound very interesting. Happy reading!
I’m so jealous. What a great pile of new books!
Here’s my It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?! And don’t forget to enter my July giveaway!
Happy reading
Ooooo, I’m really drawn to The House On Salt Hay Road!
Enjoy your books, Kathy!
Sounds like another great list of books, enjoy!
All of those are great selections. However I have been dying to get my hands on YOU DON”T SWEAT MUCH FOR A FAT GIRL, because I love the cover. It is so cute and I feel like my big self could have posed for it. I feel a new self portrait coming on! lol
You Don’t Sweat Much For a Fat Girl is one I got too. Not my usual thing, but I am looking forward to starting it.
Love the title Hot Shot and Bothered, lmao
Most of your books are “mew to me books”, maybe thats a good thing lol. Will have to wait for your reviews to see about putting them on my tbr list. I’m interested in The House on Salt Hay Road, can’t wait to see your thoughts on this one. Happy reading.
The Astral keeps popping in my radar. I’ll be looking for your thoughts on it.
I saw that title You Don’t Sweat Much for A Fat Girl twice today – am dying to know what it is about. I do have to admit I laughed because it is so OUT THERE as a title to even consider. Going to look it up and praying it is a comedy of sorts.
Enjoy the reads
PS Next time you’ll have to come to MTL to meet our gang of readers – the loveliest women in the world
You don’t Sweat much is almost a line from an ogden nash poem, for real. Great haul as usual!
You Don’t Sweat Much for a Fat Girl sounds hysterical!
You Don’t Sweat Much for a Fat Girl is going on my TBR list!
Nice eclectic list. I’ve got the Astral somewhere, dunno when I’ll get to it.
I want to read The Atral so badly…I think I might have preordered it…it sounds just deliciously yummy…have a wonderful time reading everything…
I’m curious about The Astral. Enjoy all your new books!
You have The Astral?! I’m so jealous! Happy reading and have a great week!
Every single one is a new-to-me title!! Enjoy! and I’m sure to be adding some titles to my TBR list!
I like the title of The House On Salt Lake Road. Hope it is good!
The House on Salt Road catches my eye. I am curious to see what you think of You Don’t Sweat Much For a Fat Girl..the title sure grabs one’s attention. Great mailbox as always, Kathy!
I hope you enjoy your books!
The wasp season and salt hay road books look interesting!
A group of interesting titles that I haven’t heard of. I’ll have to watch for your reviews.
I must admit, I’d be most excited about THE HOUSE ON SALT HAY ROAD. Seems like lots of people are really interested in that one, too. But I do like Denise Mina as well. Hope you enjoy them all! Along with what you picked up today, too!
Great looking pile of books! Enjoy!
