Mailbox Monday
October 26, 2015
Welcome to Mailbox Monday, a meme started by Marcia of To Be Continued, and now hosted on its own blog. I’m back from the beach and that means I have lots of catching up to do. It was totally worth it though. My mom, my sister, and I did jigsaw puzzles and lots of chatting so I didn’t get any reading done and I’m okay with that. I found these books in my mailbox last week:
Saturday
- The Fairy Tale Girl by Susan Branch came from Kelley & Hall
- The Hundred Gifts by Jennifer Scott came from Penguin Random House
Monday
- Cookies & Beer by Jonathan Bender came from Andrews McMeel
- A Banquet of Consequences by Elizabeth George came from Penguin Random House
Friday
- a book club set of Carrying Albert Home by Homer Hickam came from Harper Collins and Book Club Girl
Saturday
- Hush Hush by Laura Lippman came from Harper Collins
- Sit! Stay! Speak! by Annie England Noblin came from Harper Collins
What did you find in your mailbox last week?

The Fairy Tale Girl looks and sounds really interesting. I bet that cover is beautiful!
Sounds like you had a great time and some lovely reads to come home to.
Cookies and beer??? I’m curious about that one.
So many good-looking books. I’m reading The Hundred Gifts now. Sounds like you had a perfect getaway with your mom and sis.
I’m so jealous. Ever since I started posting mylibrary books and literary novels read and borrowed, my mailbox has been empty 😦
A Banquet of Consequences looks like a hefty undertaking!
Glad you had a good time:) Laura Lippman’s books are such page turners and Susan Branch’s are so attractive… love her artwork. Enjoy!
I just finished the Elizabeth George. Some very “icky” bad people in it! LOL
Glad you had a fun visit with your mother and sister. Your mailbox looks terrific. Have a great week Kathy.
I loved Carrying Albert Home!
Welcome back, so happy to hear the beach was once again a good time. Nick book mail, I believe I have Carrying Albert Home coming, and Hush Hush is on the shelf.
I loved Hush Hush…couldn’t put it down! I’m curious about The Fairy Tale Girl…thanks for visiting my blog.
Nice reading. So many new ones which are good
I read Hush, Hush and was a little disappointed. I usually LOVE her books. I guess it just depends on the person. I see Laurel loved it.
ENJOY all of your books. The Hundred Gifts should be a good read. It is up next for me.

Happy reading 😀
I used to love Elizabeth George’s books – this new one is BIG!
I’d like to know more about the Elizabeth George one. Is it a new series or…? I like the whole bunch except for Albert. (:
Absolutely awesome looking books. I love Susan Branch’s art work and cook books and I read her blog but it went over my head that she was writing a book book…
I have been debating about that alligator book, too…oh well…enjoy! The beach week sounds like fun. I am totally addicted to virtual jigsaw puzzles but not to real ones!
I really like Laura Lippman’s novels. Hush Hush is one i want to read. Enjoy your new books, Kathy! I am glad you had a nice time at the beach!
Hush Hush and A Banquet of Consequences sounds so good. I’ve wanted to try George’s books but haven’t yet. This one is huge!
I really want to read The Thousand Gifts. It sounds so good and I really want to hear what you think about it.
Hundred…Thousands would take forever 🙂
Glad you had a lovely visit with your mom and sister. I wish I lived closer to my mom. The Elizabeth George book looks like a chunkster.
It sounds like you had a wonderful visit. Enjoy your new goodies, Kathy!
HUSH HUSH is really good! You got some other great ones too. I’m curious about COOKIES & BEER!
Yay, jigsaw puzzles are fun!
You got some really good books this week. The Laura Lippman book especially looks good.
Looks like you got some goodies
Cookies and Beer! Sound perfect together.
Hi Kathy,
A great selection of books this week and much as I want to restrict myself to no more than one selection from a single blog – three of your books are ‘musts’ for me this time 🙂
‘The Hundred Gifts’ is already on my list, after several bloggers recieved and featured their copy last week.
I still haven’t got around to reading any Laura Lippman, however ‘Hush Hush’ does sound very good and intriguing.
‘A Banquet Of Consequences’ is another must read as ‘Lynley and Havers’ are two of my favourite fictional detectives, both in writing and on the small screen.
Thanks for sharing and I am pleased that you enjoyed some family time away 🙂

Nice pile of books! The Jennifer Scott book looks interesting.
Glad you had a nice time away. Looks like a great stack of books. Enjoy!
I love jigsaw puzzles but rarely do them any more. At least I have heard of three of your seven authors. 🙂 The Hundred Gifts looks good. Happy Reading!
Glad you had a nice visit on the beach! The Fairy Tale Girl and Cookies and Beer caught my eye. Enjoy!
I love Susan Branch! Happy reading 🙂
