Hush by Kate White- Monday (TLC Tour stop book)
The Bird House by Kelly Simmons- Wednesday (TLC Tour Stop and Book Review Club)
On my nightstand:
These books are seriously overdue to be read by me!!
I want to publicly apologize to the authors!!!
Forgive me!
I hope you will enjoy Kaplan's book, I really liked the language :)
ReplyDeleteAll is forgiven... I have stacks piling on my nightstand... yikes... let's not go there.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover for the The Girl would speak for the Dead. It sounds very Ghost Whisperer like.
Happy reading :)
I've heard good things about By Fire, By Water, so I hope you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI really want to read The Devil's Star. I've seen a couple of favorable reviews of it.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover on The Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead. I think that was one from Shelf Awareness that wasn't open to Canada. Anyhow, can't wait to hear your thoughts on it.
ReplyDeleteThink of a Number was the first book I read of 2011. The Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead looks intriguing. Looking forward to your book thoughts this week.
ReplyDeleteThink of a Number sounds GOOD! :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)
ReplyDeleteOh, great-looking books, Staci...and every time I see The Tapestry of Love, I am reminded that I want to read it SOON. It's on Sparky, my Kindle.
ReplyDeleteHere's MY MONDAY MEMES POST
Think of a Number is definitely one I want to get my hands on!
ReplyDeleteHere is mine
I really want to read Think of a Numb3r. I also saw The Girl.... on another blog this week, I am intrigued.
ReplyDeleteOooh, I'm totally jealous of The Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead! I'll be watching for that review.
ReplyDeleteOh Staci I can so relate to the seriously overdue books; chaos reigns in my home and I seem to get further and further behind. You can only do what you can do.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and happy, productive reading :)
It's so easy to get behind isn't it? I'm sure we've all be there. I hope you have lots of good reading time soon!
ReplyDeleteI gave my copy of By water, by fire to a gal in the MMBC. She's going to read it for a possible selection. I can't wait to read your review.
ReplyDeleteHow is your son doing? How's Lily?
Have a wonderful week!
Looks like you got some great books! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm really jealous of both your new books. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThe Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead sounds absolutely great. I love the mysterious, eerie cover and the title speaks for itself. I'm adding this one to my wishlist. Enjoy reading!
ReplyDeleteTake a look at what I found in my Mailbox last week.
My TBR pile is seriously giving me the blues, I look at all the books I need to read and get overwhelmed. This week I had a very difficult time picking up books that just didn't grab me and still needed to be read.
ReplyDeleteI read Think of a Number and I didn't really like it much, but The Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead looks interesting!
ReplyDeleteoh The Girl Who Would Speak to the Dead sounds good --enjoy

ReplyDeletethe girl who speaks for the dead sounds interesting. can't wait to see what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteI have the same thing going on with By Fire By Water. That book was meant to be read forever ago... it follows me from room to room and I just never get to it. I know it is good! :)
ReplyDeleteThe Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead looks interesting. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteYour mailbox books look good, Staci. I really liked The Tapestry of Love :-)
ReplyDeleteI am looking out for Hush. The books on your nightstand are outstanding. Have read and reviewed both. Amazing books.
ReplyDeleteGlad you got the book :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your new books! I have some seriously overdue books, too, so don't feel bad!
ReplyDeleteI fully understand being behind in reading review books. Some days I feel I may never be caught up. The Girl Who Would Speak for the Dead sounds good. I love that eerie cover! I can't wait to see what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteI hope you like Kaplan's book too. Looking roward to your thoughts on both. The covers for both are gorgeous as well.
ReplyDeleteI really liked Think of a Number. I'm looking forward to his second which will be out soon.
