I was surprised when UPS delivered a package from Simon & Schuster containing (3) ARCS:
- Still Alice; Lisa Genova (looking forward to this one)
- The Book of Unholy Mischief; Elle Newmark
- Dog on It; Spencer Quinn
- The Monsters of Templeton; Lauren Groff
- Shantaram; David Gregory Roberts
- The Seamstress of Hollywood Boulevard; McGraw - 4/5
- Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing; Fogarty - 5/5
- Food Matters; Bittman - 4/5
- The Story of Forgetting; Block - 4.5/5
I envy you the Still Alice. I think I requested that one recently from somewhere (that is what I get for not keeping up the ARC request Excel sheet that I used to use) and hopefully I will still get it. It looks very interesting and look forward to seeing some reviews.
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day to you too! What a nice stack of books...way to go!!
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous of Still Alice and The Book of Unholy Mischief. I asked for an ARC of the latter, but didn't get it. Can't wait for your reviews!
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day! How do you manage to read so many books ? :)
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny. I just left you a comment about 'Shantaram' and there you are, already bought it. You will love this book. It is absolutely amazing. I read it five years ago and still remember every detail!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to look up that Grammar Girls book. You gave it a 5 so hopefully it'll be helpful to me.
ReplyDeleteYou got some good books there! I liked The Monsters of Templeton, especially the last chapter.
