Great, great list. There are at least 3 books there I can’t wait to read.
Have a good time celebrating your mom’s birthday!!
I’m super excited about Britt-Marie Was Here! I loved A Man Called Ove and am super anxious to try something else by him. Have you read his other book (My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry)? I may have to break my vow to read only from my stacks when this one comes out!!
The Backman book was in my mailbox as well. Happy Birthday to your mom. Have a fun celebration.
Artemis? Oh my gosh, I have to read The Immortals! Like right now! Lucky you for scoring an ARC, I’m super excited to read you review! 💖
So delighted with your mailbox, books all new to me. Enjoy!
I can’t remember if you read A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. If so, was it worthwhile?
I read it a few years ago and loved it!
Have a wonderful time with your mother and tell her happy birthday from all of us!
Haven’t gotten any of them of course, LOL
Happy Birthday to your mother! Enjoy your new books Kathy!
I can’t wait to get the Backman book, even though I have yet to read Ove (this week!) or the “grandmother” book.
I also love the look of Two If By Sea…Mitchard is an author I enjoy.
Thanks for sharing, and enjoy your week. Here are
MY WEEKLY UPDATES
The Immortals sounds pretty good. Seems like my kind of book.
I’m so jealous about the Lahiri! I should be getting mine the day it comes out and can’t wait. I love her writing. I have The Arrangement on my kindle and think that will be an interesting read. I’m excited to find out what you think of the Backman book – looks so good! Enjoy your new pile of books 🙂
I am familiar with these and they all sound great…I will be interested in your thoughts about The Arrangement…drive safely and have fun!
I hadn’t heard of Fredrick B before and now this is the 3rd book, wow. Enjoy

Jhumpa Lahiri is such good writer. Didn’t know she had a new book.
Nice group of books. A couple of these are already on my list of must-reads!
What a great haul! I definitely want to read Jhumpa Lahiri, I heard a lot of good about her writing. Happy reading!
