looks like a good list of reads; enjoy
I’ve read This Is Paradise – hope you enjoy it.
Is that a Downtown Abbey theme I spy? Have a great reading week!
Great mailbox. Confessions of a Hater sounds like interesting YA. I feel like the only one left who hasn’t gotten into watching Downton Abbey, it looks like a show I’d like. Happy reading!
I am very jealous about DeMille’s, The Quest. I like how he writes. Enjoy and thanks for hosting Kathy.
I must watch the Downton Abbey series. It really looks like something I would enjoy. Enjoy your week.
Lots of Downton Abbey stuff – very nice (I still haven’t watched past Season 1 – one day…) Congrats on your wins and thank you for hosting 🙂
A new Forsyth and many Downton Abbey books! wow.
What is the weird thing with no side identification?
That’s The Quest by Nelson DeMille – it’s a bound galley so there’s not identification on the spine.
What a great new set of reads! I’ve only just jumped on the Downton Abbey craze! Have a great week!
I’ve been wanting to read While We Were Watching Downton Abbey as I love the TV series. Have a great week.
How fun to have the Downton Abbey books! Love that series as much as i did Upstairs, Downstairs in the 70’s.
Enjoy!
Hope you love the Wendy Wax book as much as I did! You have a lovely stack of books…enjoy!
What a great selection of books. Again this week, nothing in my mailbox in the way of books or movies. Have a great week.
You always have such great books. I love stopping by on Mondays to see all the latest published and ARCs. I also received The Quest and will be comparing notes :).
Lovin’ all the Downton Abbey wins! Another great week.
I’m looking forward to With All My Love. Enjoy your haul!
Wow … so many of those titles are new to me. Happy, reading, Kathy!
Nice assortment. I have the Downton Abbey book in audio but haven’t listened to it yet.
Holy Cow! That is a huge amount of books to peruse, read and treasure!
Oooh, I see some Downton Abbey goodness!
Great mailbox! I haven’t read any of these, I’ll be looking forward to your reviews. If you haven’t watched Downton Abbey, I’m sure you’ll love it!
I love the premise of the Downton Abbey book–love it when pop cultures collide 🙂
Hi Kathy,
Another great selection of books and authors this week. All the titles are new to me, however there are some old favourites amongst the authors. I am particularly looking forward to reading ‘With All My Love’. I used to be an avid fan of Patricia Scanlan’s early books, but haven’t read any of her writing for quite some time now.
Thanks for featuring some excellent material and for stepping in to the breach, to host again this week.

Downton Abbey 😀
Looks like varied review sources and nice wins too. Enjoy all of your reading!
Thanks again for hosting. (I published my post last night but forgot to come over to link until now.) So much to do!
the Paradise books sounds interesting. although maybe shattering my image of Hawaii
I like thrillers, The Kill List caught my eye.

Enjoy your new books, Kathy, and thanks for hosting MM! 🙂

I am back home.

Awesome mailbox, as usual! I want to read the 2 Abby books!
I have recently converted my Mom to Downton Abbey and am reliving it all with her. I listened to While We Were Watching ….it was very entertaining and a good chance to get back to the series. Have a great week!
I hope you love Downtown Abby. It’s a fun read.
Enjoy your new goodies Kathy! I’ve been wanting to watch Downtown Abby for sometime…
Great looking stack! Can’t wait to hear what you think of Confessions of a Hater.
What a stack! I see lots of Downtown Abbey things. Enjoy!
Jealous of the Downtown Abbey win! I’ve been wanting to watch that. I have With All My Love, too, so I’ll be looking out for your review. Happy reading!
Can’t wait to hear what you think of Downton Abbey!
More good books. Where are you putting all these already? Lol. I have Downton Abbey on audio and really need to get to it soon.
