Monday Memes

Hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.  We share books that we've read over the past week and those we hope to read this week.  

Last Week:
Last week I finished Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness and On the Island by Tracey Garvis-Graves.


This Week:
I hope to finish Scarlet by A. C. Gaughen and Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller and maybe start reading Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry.

Mailbox Monday is a touring meme where book bloggers share their bookish acquisitions from the week prior.  It is hosted this month by Burton Book Review.  This week I received some really exciting books!

Won:
I won a copy of Wife 22 by Melanie Gideon (eeeek - so excited!) from Meg at A Bookish Affair - thanks Meg!

For Review:
I received On the Island by Tracey Garvis-Graves which is a perfect summer read - courtesy of Penguin. 

I also got a copy of Princess Elizabeth's Spy by Susan Elia MacNeal - courtesy of Random House

Purchased:
The Edible Woman by Margaret Atwood

The Last Chinese Chef by Nicole Mones

  1. I love the cover of Princess Elizabeth's Spy. I have yet to read any Atwood. I have had The Blind Assassin on my bookshelf for a couple of years now but I haven't had a chance to delve into it yet. I hope you enjoy your other selections. Happy Reading!

  6. I bought On The Island a few weeks ago but haven't read it yet. One of my friends put it on her 2012 best books list already!
