So many of these look terrific!
Mating Rituals of the North American WASP sounds really interesting, I would be nice to read your thoughts about it.
I can see that you’re reading Secret daughter. I have it in my TBR, hope you are liking it.
Nice list! Happy reading.
Sing Them Home looks so interesting!! Can’t wait to hear what you think about it. I received Valeria’s Last Stand too!!
So excited about Beach Trip…can’t wait to read what you think!
You had a great week. I got Afraid in my mailbox this week. Happy reading 🙂
Nice stack of books. I’m looking forward to the Beach Trip Tour.
I’m on the mating rituals tour as well…looks like the other books you got are really interesting.
happy reading…here’s my mailbox: http://www.savvyverseandwit.com/2009/05/mailbox-monday-29.html
I have got Every Last Cuckoo in my pile somewhere.
Dark places sounds good!
What’s up?
We are doing the Beach Trip tour together, yay!
I have heard such great things about Gillian Flynn, I really need to find a way to sneak her into my reading schedule!
Kathy you had a good week. The only one we have in common is the Mating Rituals one. Hope you have another good week.
Ha, Secret Daughter is what really caught my eye.
Looks like a very good week.
At Black-Eyed Susan’s, I host Little Lov’n Monday. It’s a day we commit to reading and commenting to others. Drop us a link and you earn a chance to win a free book.
Happy reading.
I look forward to hearing what you think about the new Gillian Flynn.
I’m curious about Every Last Cuckoo. You got a nice stash there.
I love the title In the Sanctuary of Outcasts. Hope you enjoy your new books!

Great books! I am Afraid to read Afraid. 🙂
I just featured Dark Places last week in my Friday finds! Lucky snag! Enjoy your books.
You got quite a few books I don’t recognize! I loved Sing Them Home; I hope you enjoy it too. Happy reading!
I really want to read Valeria’s Last Stand. I’ll watch for your review!
Beach Trip looks good Enjoy
What a great stack of books. Enjoy them.
those books look fabulous and such a selection.
many great books, enjoy.
And the mating rituals one sure sounds funny
I have heard of a few of those books, but haven’t read any of them. They look great though!
I received Mating Rituals of the North American WASP and Afraid as well. I was surprised getting Afraid, since I didn’t expect to get anything from the Library Early Reviewers program, but it was a nice surprise. 🙂
I hope you enjoy your books and I look forward to your reviews.

I’m so jealous you got Mating Rituals of the North American Wasp 🙂
These look really good! Sing Them Home looks especially interesting.
What a great bunch of books. I’ll have to look for Every Last Cuckoo. Algonquin always publishes great books.
You got books almost every day! That’s awesome! 🙂
What a great week! I’m waiting for The Mating Ritual and I recently got Afraid. My mom read it and said it was really good. You’ve got such a great assortment. I look forward to your reviews!
how do you keep up??!
Nice selection of books! Enjoy!
I’m quite curious about Dark Places, but many of your titles sound interesting, and I don’t have ANY of them. 🙂

WOW, another great week in books! Some great reads there.
Happy Reading Kathy. Looks like a lot of great books there.
ooo you got Valeria’s Last Stand 🙂 *Jealous* 🙂
I see I am getting behind when I only recognize one of these titles – eek!
I want to read Valeria’s Last Stand. It was hard not to request an arc but hopefully my library will have it. Sing Them Home sounds interesting. I read Flynn’s first novel Sharp Objects and it gave me a chill so I’ve got Dark Places coming from the library. Can’t wait to hear your opinions on these. Enjoy.
I’m afraid my mailbox is a lot quieter than yours. But I got a great purse with a book this week. That was cool!
Thank you for stopping by the mailbox this week. Enjoy ‘Afraid’ but you won’t shut your eyes at night!
Great haul this week! I have Sing Them Home and Dark Places on my wishlist already so I can’t wait to read your reviews.
