Mailbox Monday October 14


Happy Monday! I haven't posted a Mailbox Monday post since July so my pile may seem large but these books came over a few months. This month Mailbox Monday is being hosted by Gina of Book Dragon's Lair.

  3. You have some GOOD books.

    I read THE WEDDING GIFT...very good.

    My son finished BELLMAN & BLACK and liked it...he said it was dark, but good.

    I am currently reading THE TILTED WORLD...it is pretty good.

    ENJOY your week and your books.

    1. Hi Elizabeth,

      I also have Bellman & Black on my list, courtesy of a free download from NetGalley, so it is good to know that I have a great read to look forward to, even though it is potentially quite dark and brooding.

    2. We can discuss when we are both done.

      He said it took a few pages to get into, but as I said he liked it.

      Looking forward to discussing it with you. Not sure when I am going to get to it, though.

      Have a great day.

  5. Hi Beth,

    What some fantastic sounding books, I can feel my TBR pile beginning to lean dangerously, so I am going to have to be ruthless.

    I already have Bellman&Black in my pile, courtesy of NetGalley, doesn't that one sound dark and brooding?

    The others from your selection which are definitely for my list, are .... 'The Wednesday Daughters' and 'The Wedding Gift'

    Thanks for sharing some great titles and enoy the rest of your week.
