Mailbox Monday
is a gathering place for readers to share the books that
came into their house last week and explore great book blogs.
Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.
February Host is: Metroreader
I Thought You Were Dead- I bought this on Audible.com after getting the suggestion from Diane@Bibliophile by the Sea. She's a great lover of audio books and I trust her opinions. I think this one sounds great!
The Man Who Loved Pride & Prejudice- I love this author's P&P variations and Sourcebooks ran a great sale on some of their titles. I had to buy this one for my Kindle!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
We discuss the books that we've read
and what we're planning to read for the week.
Reviews last week:
What Happened to Hannah- I thought this was a captivating story...good read.
Bookish Thoughts:
Bossypants- loved this audio book narrated by Tina Fey..absolute fun!
The Diary of Mattie Spenser- great book about women and the frontier life
Emma- I listened to this from Audible.com...loved the British accent but it was hard to follow. Note to self: read Austen first, then listen to it!!
Books to be featured this week:
The Baker's Daughter- TLC Tour stop on Tuesday
Explosive Eighteen- audio version
Still Life- a favorite read of Margot's
In My Book Box:
A Moveable Feast- still reading for a group read-a-long
Bridge of Scarlet Leaves- author review request
Reservation Road- library book
Sounds like you have some great books ahead of you! I feel like I say this all of the time but this IS the year that I'm going to read something by Austen. I've even downloaded a few books of hers onto my kindle. Now I just need to figure out which one that I should start with...any suggestions?
