Mailbox Monday ~ February 21st


Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that that arrived during the previous week.  Created by Marcia @ The Printed Page, this month's host is:  Laura @ Library of Clean Reads.  Here is what arrived last week:
 
 
I realized that I really had only purchased a couple of books in 2011 (running list - HERE), so I decided to remedy that a bit. Many of these were suggested by ALL of YOU book enablers out there.



 These arrived from various publishers:

Hope that you had a great week in books!

    "As Husbands Go" is a great book title and "Pinkalicious" looks very cute. Enjoy all of your new books!

    The Sandalwood Tree and Bird House are two books which I am seeing popping up all over the blogs. You have such a nice haul of books this week. Enjoy.

    What a fantastic haul! I'm most excited to hear your thoughts on The Group (the subject matter fascinates me, and I haven't read anything by that author). I have the new Megan Abbott too and hope to read it soon!

    I think I also have a copy of The Group, but it's hidden away right now! A lot of your new arrivals look excellent, and I will be excited to hear what you think of them!

    Lots of books this week, good for you. I hope you enjoy all of them.

    I read a lot the first 10 days on vacation, I need to catch up. I arrived home yesterday and my mom's cancer is taking over so I'm heading home and won't have time to read much. Life... it's unpredictable!

    Some fabulous books! Especially the Persephones and The Group. I've recently read Cannery Row so lusting after Sweet Thursday.

    Enjoy! (Will you be reading the Whipple or the Laski this coming weekend?)
