Mailbox Monday – Now to find time to read them all …

by Belle on December 15, 2008

This was a much better week in terms of incoming books! The only problem is that, with the holidays coming up (and I haven’t done much in terms of shopping yet), it will be a challenge finding time to sit down with these. And I really want to!

So here’s what came this past week:

Children’s Books: My One Hundred Adventures, by Polly Horvath

Children’s Books: The Case of the Missing Marquess, by Nancy Springer

Mystery: The Cure for All Diseases, by Reginald Hill

Young Adult: The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks, by E. Lockhart

Mystery: The Victoria Vanishes, by Christopher Fowler

Chick Lit/Romance: Certain Girls, by Jennifer Weiner

What did everyone else get in the mail?

Looks like a varied list! Can’t help you find the time to read! Am struggling myself.

The Disreputable History is one I’m very curious about. And I know what you mean about time.

Looks like you had a nice take. And I’m sure you’ll find the time hiding somewhere to devour them. I have complete faith in your super-human reading abilities. ;)

I’m hoping to be able to read these soon! And yes, Cathy, that’s what I thought too – Reginald Hill AND Christopher Fowler!

I have three of those — My One Hundred Adventures, The Case of the Missing Marquess (one of my favorites!) and The Victoria Vanishes. I’m thinking The Victoria Vanishes is going to be my next book. LOVE the cover!

I am reading The Disreputable History right now and enjoying it more than I thought I would. It is pretty good. I’m planning to read My One Hundred Adventures in January.

Thank you for stopping by the ‘mailbox’ this week. I know Christopher Fowler is on my wish list I just can’t remember which book it is.
