As a relatively new "blogga" this entire book acquiring thing was a total surprise to me. I have always bought books. I love the heft and smell and feel of books. I love owning them and putting them in stacks in various rooms all over my house and I love them on shelves. I also buy books for my Kindle...I love carrying around my most recent library with me in one slim case. I even have a Kindle carrier...it is sort of a bag...very cool...that is similar to a shoulder bag where I keep my Kindle and charger and night time light etc. There is a site called M-Edge where you can get the coolest ereader accessories. So rather than toss my Kindle into my regular bag...I just wear this flat bag...mine is red and I love it for travel and more. Any way...this brings me to my first Mailbox Monday. Here are my most recent choices.
On my Kindle...
Eternal Hunter by Cynthia Eden
Tuscan Holiday by Holly Chamberlain
These were offered free from Amazon so I just whispernetted them to my memory card because I could not resist.
I bought these...
The Particular Sadness Of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender
A Vintage Affair by Isabel Wolff
Thirteen To Life by Shannon Delaney
One Day by David Nicholls
Folly by Marthe Jocelyn

Why is it so much fun to get books in the mail?
Welcome to Mailbox Monday!!! I'm sure this is just the beginning of many books you'll get in the mail. It'll be hard to decide which one to read first.
ReplyDeleteKathy...I am so excited...I have been getting more and more books and I realize it is fun to post and share just to see what everyone is reading...I guess pretty soon I will be doing a GIVEAWAY!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're going to be one busy reader this summer, Patty. :D
ReplyDeleteI've heard The One That I Want is really good.
I have The Particular Sadness Of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender. I can't wait to start it, it looks good.
ReplyDeleteHey, Patty! It's so cool that you get books in the mail and why is it so cool?...because it is free and like getting a present! :D
ReplyDeleteAs for some of the books that you bought or received, I particularly have one of them on my TBR list already. That book is The Particular Sadness Of Lemon Cake, which I thought had a cool concept. As for the other books, I got to check them out and see if they fall into my tastes.
Anyway, write on and read on!
Vatche...I love Aimee Bender...I would send it to you but it is Kindled...hee hee hee...the jenni hollowell one looks so dysfunctional...I can't wait to read it...I love dysfunction...in books...not in me...I will be writing and reading on...you, too...what are you reading now?
