In My Mailbox

Thank you to Kristi from Story Siren who hosts this wonderful meme.  After being out of town for twelve days the mailbox was a little overloaded.  Here is what hit my mailbox for the last two weeks:

I love historical fiction and this read due out to the public on March 16th!

Fun looking cover – a crafty idea of a book!

I am really excited to get a look at this book.  This is all about learning to live with half of what we do now.

Sweet looking cover and my guess is with this author, also a sweet read.

This book looks to be an interesting look into Christian music and the way it is perceived.  Coming from a church that plays very modern Christian music – I am interested in this book.

Gah!  Look what hit my mailbox!  The missing Lola book and not one – but two copies!  Can you say “giveaway?”  I am so excited for this one!

This book is total cover love for me!

At first look I didn’t think this book would be for me – but reading more into it I see it is filled with interesting facts and I look forward to learning something with this book.

I am so looking forward to this one!  17 CD’s on this audio!  YOWZA!!!

The Icing On The Cupcake looks and sounds great!  And how fun is this?  They sent an apron with this book!

And this is just another example why I just adore fellow book bloggers!  How sweet is this?  Julie H sees that I have an interest in this book, discovers she has two and sends me one.  What a surprise this was in my mailbox!  Thank you Julie!

Fun secrets of successful people make this book up.  And yup – two books means a giveaway!

John and Staci Eldredge are both authors I have read before.  I have completed this review here.

I am not the biggest sports fan in the world but I do like facts and this book with CD sounds like a great read!

Yes!  Crazy School is here!  And I have a giveaway going on for this book here.

This looks like a good read.

So there is my mailbox for the past two weeks.  What bookish things came in yours?

    1. That is a great cover Laurel! You are so right – catch up is sucking big time. Monday I should have time to really catch up again 🙂 Its been a long week considering a week ago today I was in Florida – then Minnesota and now Illinois…. 🙂

  1. What a great mailbox!! You have many great looking books!! I’m thinking The Queen’s Lover and Songbird Under a German Moon look heavenly!! Looking forward to all of your reviews!!

  2. Wow! I’m all GREEN!! 🙂 So many excellent books!! There are many of them on my TBR! I’m waiting for your reviews! Meanwhile, have fun reading them!! 🙂

  3. What came in my mailbox is nothing which makes me extremely jealous of all these gorgeous covers. I’ve had the Susan Jane Gilman on my list for ages – love that title.

    Enjoy them all!

    1. Whenever I can Esme! 🙂 I read 11 last week when I was on vacation and three over this weekend during the drive time so that helped. Al leaves for Honduras this Thursday so I wall have 10 days alone…. no one to cook for….. all reading time 🙂

  4. How fun to come home from a great trip to find so many books waiting!

    I just received The Power of Half as well, and looking forward to reading it!

    Happy Valentine’s Day! Enjoy!

  5. What a great group of books! I just picked up the first Lola book at the library myself. And I’m almost done with The Queen’s Lover. It appears long, but I’ve been captivated by the story. Icing on the Cupcake just looks delicious! Have fun!

    1. Hi Julie J – I am excited to read Lola, it was part of a blog tour but the book never arrived for me. Now it is here so I still have the review to do. I am excited as the author has been so sweet to me!

      Thanks again for the book! LOVE IT! 🙂

  6. WOW!! I want your mailbox! All of those look very interesting! How were you able to get so many publishers interested in sending your arcs? *bows to you* 🙂

    1. Hi Misty, I think mostly you prove yourself as blogger. It took me quite a few months to establish relationships with publishers and authors and that is a good think because jumping in with loads of book offers from the start is not something I would recommend.

      After a while when they seen my writing and my audience they came to me. I still have to be choosy in my reading – there are so many wonderful books out there. 🙂

  7. Good Heavens! You are going to have to find an extra week or two to add to the year so you can read all of these. There are some really good books there. There are a couple of the non-fiction ones I’d like to read.

Hmmmm... what do you think?
