    Sisters of the Sari looks intriguing and, of course, everyone loves Ann Patchett. When you get that many books per week (she said enviously) what do you do with them all? Do you keep them after you've read them?

    Paulita,

    I rarely keep books once I read them. I either share them with family or friends, do a few giveaways, and then donate the rest to our ongoing library booksale.

    I have the Flea Palace. I must have had it for ages now and I really should read it. Enjoy your books.

    I didn't know Ann Pratchett had a 'new' one out! What a lovely stack you have, and as I replied to your comment on my blog, if you'd like Sea Escape email me your address and I'll send it to you. Like two Mailbox Mondays in one! ;)

    What great books you received! I'm most interested in hearing about The Flea Palace and Before I Go To Sleep (I love books dealing w/ memories.) Enjoy!

    I've always enjoyed Ann Patchett's books...and The First Day of the Rest of My Life sounds promising.

    I can't wait to read State of Wonder! I loved Ann Patchett's Bel Canto, so I'm hoping this one lives up to it.

    You received a wonderful selection of books last week! I'll bet it will be hard to figure out which to start with first. :) What a great problem to have.
