Enjoy your books!
Both of your new books look good to me and I had to smile because the covers look similar too.

ReplyDeleteThe Winter Sea is a really good book. I hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThe covers of the two in your mailbox are similar. I love the cover of The Forever Queen!
ReplyDeleteI've got The Winter Sea sitting on my TBR shelves. I've read one of Kearsley's books and really liked it. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThere's not one book here that is familiar to me. That's so good. I'll learn about some good or bad reads from you. It's nice to have reading friends who read different books from me. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteBoth look like interesting books! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteGreat Mailbox. The Hollick book looks / sounds really great! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI came by earlier, Staci, but now I have my link.
ReplyDeleteClick on my name....
I have The Winter Sea on my wishlist. The cover is gorgeous!! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI have Financial Lives of Poets to read soon. I'm not sure about it. I want to love it, so we'll see.

Have a great week and happy reading.
ReplyDeleteThe books you got do remind me of a question I was asking myself a while ago. Why does it seem that the trend in book covers right now is showing a woman from the back? I don't get it.
I have Hollick's book too, but don't remember being offered Kearsley's book. Prob just as well.
ReplyDeleteYou have the Syrie James book! Can't wait to hear your thoughts. Dying to read it. Have a great week babe!
I haven't heard of either of these books but the cover art is lovely! Enjoy reading them.
ReplyDeleteYeah the covers are great for The Winter Sea and The Forever Queen. Hope you like them both! My mailbox is at The Crowded Leaf.

ReplyDeleteThose covers are very similar. That seems to be a trend these days! I hope that you enjoy them both.
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week ahead! Here is my Mondays: Mailbox/Where Am I/Musings post.
ReplyDeleteThe Winter Sea looks really good. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if this was the "similar covers" meme when I saw your books. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these look interesting, and it's true that the covers are similar! Where is the discussion for the first book happening?
ReplyDeleteThose look good, Staci. Hope you enjoy them! have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to read Helen Hollick's new book and I haven't heard of The Winter Sea so will look it up on Goodreads. Off to check out your review of Hot House Flower. Have a fab week Staci and enjoy your reads :)
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting how both of the covers on your book have women with their back turned and long hair.
ReplyDeleteI bought a Susanna Kearsley book not long ago. I'm sure I'm going to become a fan of hers. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThose books have THE MOST georgous covers! I love Source Books, they are both right up my alley!
ReplyDeleteGreat mailbox! Enjoy!
Winter Sea and Forever Queen look really good!
ReplyDeleteI will be adding these to my list too - funny since I only get to listen these days... hopefully they are available in audio.
Come January, I will have o much time I won't know what to do with myself :)
