Mailbox Monday is a touring meme where book bloggers share their bookish acquisitions from the week prior. It is hosted this month by Savvy Verse and Wit.
This past week I received all sorts of goodies!
The Marriage Artist by Andrew Winer (courtesy of Henry Holt and Co.)
MWF Seeking BFF by Rachel Bertshe (courtesy of Random House)
The Traitor's Daughter by Paula Brandon (courtesy of Random House)
The Demi-Monde: Winter by Rod Rees (courtesy of Harper Collins)
Traitor's daughter sounds interesting. I hope you enjoy all your books. I have pemberley ranch as well. Hopefully I can read it before the end of the year to finish up the civil war reading challenge.
ReplyDeleteOoo, "Traitor's Daughter" sounds good! The cover alone is gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteMWF sounds like a good read. I can't wait to see what you think of it. I am off to check out The Marriage Artist. Both the cover and title have intrigued!

great books here enjoy reading them
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books.
ReplyDeleteI've heard mixed things about the Shannon Hale Austenland books - would you recommend them?
ReplyDeleteSome great-looking new books there!
Oooh, The Traitor's Daughter. LOVE the cover, LOVE the summary. I'd probably love the book too if I had time to read it. It needs to go on my list.
ReplyDeleteHow are you liking Smoke & Bone?

@Shannon - I recommend them with the caveat that they are definitely fluff/silly but are also very fun :)
ReplyDelete@Asheley - I really enjoyed it! I didn't write a review b/c it seems that everyone is reviewing/loving this book and I didn't really have anything all that original to add to the mix :) I can't wait for the next installment!
I've been wanting to read The Sky is Everywhere. I'll be anxious to see how you like it!
ReplyDeleteThey all looks good to me!
ReplyDeleteI spent last week rebooting my blog on Wordpress. I hope you will stop by and let me know what you think.
