A great collection of audiobooks there. Farewell to Freedom has also caught my attention – look forward to your review.
Can’t wait to see what you think of the Ken Follett (it’s on my Christmas list). Have fun listening and reading!
Wow, lots of great audio books. I would be interested in what you thought of NW by Zadie SMmth. I didn’t finish it.
What GREAT audio books. I so want NW and Winter of the World. enjoy
Yikes! You got some terrific audio books this week. Have a great week and happy reading!
WOW..that is some tower of books!! All are “new to me” so will be interested in what your thoughts are. Have a great day!
Oh my…do you need help carrying them?
Wow…you have hours and hours and hours of listening! You need a road trip!
I just saw a video of the hat book…I need to get it for my niece…it’s so sweet!
Enjoy!
That is one sexy audio stack!
I think I would have a panic attack if I got all those books in one week. They would keep me busy for the rest of the year. I hope they are all good ones for you, they look like new ones to me. Here is my Monday post.
Fabulous looking books…I don’t know if I could listen to all those…not a fan of audio (:
I Want My Hat Back and This Is Not My Hat look very intriguing….enjoy! Here’s MY MONDAY MEMES POST
Frothing over all your audiobooks–I’m an audiobook junkie! Tell me about the Clive Cussler–does my main squeeze, Scott Brick, narrate it?! Enjoy your haul.
WOW what a stack, I’ve had “Everybody see the Ants” on my radar lately, I hear good things about it. Looks like you’ll be busier than ever.
You get the most amazing stacks of books! And I love Candlewick Press – they always have great stuff!
Oh, I am envious of all those delicious looking audios. I need to get on their list! ;o). I read Everybody Sees The Ants and enjoyed it.

Great mailbox of audio books! All new to me. Happy listening.
You’ve got some serious listening to do!
looks like you’ve received quite a library there! Enjoy!
Lots of great audios there! I love a few of those titles! I hope that you enjoy all of them.
Great mailbox. The Jon Klassen books sound cute.
I know just what you mean, it’s always rush rush rush, especially during this time of year.
Now that’s a tower of audio books! Enjoy, Kathy.
Wowza! I am curious about the Klassen books. They sound like they would be perfect for my story time at the library.
Holy cow! That’s a lot of listening!
That is quite the balancing act you got going on there!
That’s an intimidating stack of audiobooks, isn’t it? I’ve heard good things about Everybody Sees the Ants and can’t wait to hear what you think of the audio.
Wow! You’ve got a lot to listen to this week. Enjoy!
Hi Kathy,
I can’t ever imagine being so lucky, as to receive all those great books in one week and from such a diverse range of genres.
I picked out a couple that would be of particular interest to me … ‘Farewell To Freedom’ and ‘A Murder Of Quality’ … you can’t go wrong with a dose of Le Carre, can you?
Thanks for an interesting post.

I’m curious to know how many cds are there in that Ken Follett book. It is huge!
AWESOME week….ENJOY!!

What an excellent stack of books. I’m curious about your thoughts on the kids’ books. I read I Want my Hat to my kids. They weren’t impressed. Happy listening!
I Want My Hat Back looks like an adorable book! I hope you enjoy it.
Geez, that is quite a tower of books! My own mailbox was empty–but not for long! Enjoy your new books, Kathy!!
Those hat books look so cute! Lots of neat looking audios too!
Perfect is overrated is a personal motto
I got the audio books from Penguin too. Those will be good to listen to as I get the yard cleaned up and ready for winter (ugh, did I say winter?).
I hope you have a wonderful week with all these books! coming to the meme rather late in the day.
Nice stack of books…happy reading
That’s a massive pile of books – the Ken Follett looks particularly intimidating, even though it is audio!
Well I am envious of all those audios!!! Now that my drive time is an hour a day I have a feeling I may be posting more audio reviews!
It looks like you have a lot of hours of listening ahead for you!
I’ve heard great things about the new Zadie Smith novel – enjoy!
Hey Kathy, looks like you got a lot of good stuff there. I really need to listen to Ken Follett’s newest one of these days. I still haven’t read or listened to the first. They are pretty long listens. Enjoy!
Wow, that’s a great stack. Enjoy!
Looks like you have a lot of great audio books in your future. Happy listening!
I loved Pillars of the Earth and World Without End (the latter was on audio, which was awesome!), so I need to carve out some listening time for Fall of Giants and Winter of the World. I love a chunky saga!
