I am waiting for Roses and the Boy next door to come in. You had a good week Kathy. Happy reading.
I’m very excited – I also won the Asian pack – so maybe mine will arrive soon too.
You had some great luck with winning books! They all look great, enjoy your books.
Some fabulous books there. You won so many. I hope you have fun picking which one to read next.
I received my Hachette books last week, too. Many of the same books!
Looks like some great books Kathy!
You are the luckiest book winner in the book blogging world. Good for you. The titles all look promising.
You always get the best books! I just bought the Story Sisters…and I also got the Ferris and Sabatini books from Hachette. They look so good, don’t they?
Kathy, I cannot even imagine how overrun with books your house must be 😉 I won the Asian giveaway too, but am still awaiting the books. I did receive 4 from the Mother’s Day giveaway last week, plus books from NY and a book from Bookfan-Mary.
Looks like a great reading week!!
Whoo-hoo, look at that pile! Congrats on all your wins and enjoy your books!
now that’s a great week in books. I hope you enjoy the Women’s Murder Club!
What a great collection of books to read! I received Careless in Red, Author: Elizabeth George; Spirits in the Wires, Author: Charles de Lint; Handle with Care, Author: Jodi Picoult and an audio CD set of Boneman’s Daughter. I started listening to the CD set this morning and can’t wait for the ride home from work today!
What an awesome list of books!!!! I think the Asian package sounds very interesting!! Enjoy all of those goodies!!
Wow, what a great stack. Enjoy!
Amazing pile!! Sort of like a stack of legos. LOL
I think I know what you will be busy doing this week.
Happy reading and enjoy your books. Careful you don’t tip the pile over.

Seriously, this is one big stack of books for one week! I don’t know how you do it!
I read The Poet last year and remember it being pretty good.
When do you find time to read all those books?
That’s some stack Kathy. It looks like it’s going to topple over. lol.
You got some good-sounding books this week.
I’d like to have your luck in contests. Very impressive wins. Happy reading.
What a great stack of books! I won the Asian Heritage Month giveaway, too, but I didn’t receive mine in time for this week’s mailbox. Happy reading!!

That is one huge stack of reading! I’ll be waiting to see your reaction the Alice Hoffman — when you get to it — I’ve just read it and had a rather mixed reaction.
Congrats on the win… what a great big pile of books you have my dear. LOVE IT.
Wow! Reading posts like this makes me want to shed all vestiges of self-control and request ARCs like a madwoman! 🙂 I’ll come back down to earth in a few minutes. That is one cool stack of books!
Oh my Goodness!!
