Well, it seems like my Mailbox Monday posts should be labeled Monthly Mailbox lately! As my due date is getting close (little over 8 weeks) we're trying to finish up the baby's room and pick up any last minute items still needed, plus I'm preparing for my replacement at work and working on the last few tours for HFVBT so I haven't had a lot of time to work on the blog. I've overdue on a few reviews and hope to have those up soon. In the meantime, here are the books that I've received over the past month or so.

That's my mailbox, what books did you add to your shelves?
Wow, Amy! Awesome mailbox. I'm still waiting for my copy of Bring Up the Bodies to arrive...I really hope it shows up next week.
ReplyDeleteI've got a number of the books you have listed for review on my shelf so I'm looking forward to hearing what you think of them.
Hope you love The Hungers Games trilogy, the Game of Thrones and The House at Riverton as much as I did.
Wow, so many of these books are on my TBR list! I hope you enjoy The Bronze Horseman, it is one of my absolute favorites!
ReplyDeleteWow! So many of those look so good! Lucky you! The Autobiography of Mrs. Tom Thumb sounds intriguing. Enjoy!

I hope you enjoy The Bronze Horseman trilogy. It's a beautiful love story. One of my favorites ever. In the Fall the author has a prequel book for this trilogy. Have a wonderful day.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's some pile o'books! I'm sure you'll enjoy.
ReplyDeleteAwesome goodies.....glad to see someone else who still has to read The Bronze Horseman! I thought perhaps I was the only one left who still needs to read this series. I hope you enjoy all your reads!
ReplyDeleteHappy mother's day!!
That's not a mailbox! that a miniature library. Enjoy them all. They all look absolutely fabulous.
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! Enjoy your books!!
ReplyDeleteSo many delicious books!! Drool and covet! Looking forward to your reviews of the Paullina Simons' novels -- I've heard good things about The Bronze Horseman!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of great books! I loved the Bronze Horseman books, hope you enjoy them as well!
ReplyDeleteThat's quite a haul! I really want to read the Bronze Horsemen books.
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading!
Wow! What a mailbox. I see several titles that I also have on my shelves. Game of Thrones was my favorite read in 2011. I hope you like it. I'm sure I don't have to tell you to enjoy your books because I know you will!
ReplyDeleteOnly 8 more weeks, huh? I know you are so excited. So thrilled for you. =O)
Because of your list, I just added Sherry Jones - Four Sisters, All Queens - to my TBR list, thank you!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I read (or should I say started to read) Gabrielle Kimm's "His Last Duchess" and it shortly ended up in my "read but not finished" folder on my Kindle....in my opinion, the writing style was horrible (but that's just my own opinion). Have you ever read any books by Judith Arnopp? I HIGHLY recommend them! I picke up Peace Weaver, and after that one, blew through the rest of her books in a matter of a month, that was how good they were, I just could not put them down! Now I'm badgering her to finish her next book, lol!
