I love the bookmark. I’ll have to check out the link you posted.
Some interesting sounding books in there 🙂
Enjoy
‘The Crying Tree’ sounds like a gripping read! Clicked on the link for ‘of Bees and Mist’ but the copver doesn’t look the same, what I can see of the one you received is quite eye catching.
Enjoy your books!
I got the Crying Tree too. It looks interesting at first glance. Easy on the Eyes should be a good read. You got some really good ones there.Enjoy your books and have a great week. My mailbox is here
A lovely bookmark and fabulous books.
We have a few of the same ones, but I really love the bookmark!
I read The Killing Tree earlier this year, maybe I should try The Crying Tree. What’s next? The Remorseful Tree?
LOL Beth, I immediately thought of the Killing Tree when i saw The Crying Tree here 🙂
I also noticed the wonderful bookmark right away. I haven’t read any of the books you got in your mailbox, but they all sound interesting and I hope they are all great reads.
I received The Wet Nurse’s Tale, The Crying Tree and that cute bookmark as well! Enjoy your books.
another great stash! The Crying Tree looks awesome!
The Crying Tree cries out to me!

Thank goodness you got the Jane Porter book to lighten things up a bit! Looks like there’s some serious reading in the others. Nice bookmark, too!
Of Bees and Mist sounds like it will be really good. I can’t wait to read that one. I hope you enjoy all of your new books, Kathy!
The bookmark is fabulous! You got some great books – I decided to not participate in B&N First Look this time around – maybe the next one – but I will definitely look forward to your review of that book!
These all sound great enjoy!
I’d like that Bob Barker one.
I got Of Bees and Mist also. I’m only two chapters in and it has me hooked. It’s not my normal type of read but it just shows that it’s good to try new things.
I would love to get Bees and Mist and the Jane Porter book. Lucky you! Great mailbox.
I got The Crying Tree as well. There are a couple others of yours that I’ll have to keep an eye peeled for once I start seeing reviews. 🙂

The book mark is too cute Kathy. Is it hand made? It looks it.
Great books. Only one in common like you said. The Jane Porter one sounds good.
Great mailbox! The bookmark is great. I imagine mine should get here this week. Have a great week Kathy.
I haven’t heard of any of the books you got this week! Hope you enjoy them!
Love the bookmark! Easy on the Eyes looks good.
I got The Crying Tree too…and Easy on the Eyes is on my WL!
A nice variety of books. Enjoy!
Another week, another great haul!
Ohh! I want the Jane Porter book!
I also received OF BEES AND MIST, THE CRYING TREE, and THE WET NURSES TALE. I know it’s barely summer, but it looks like some great books will be released in the fall!
Love the bookmark. Enjoy your reads.
The Bees of Mist and The Crying Tree look good, I would like to read Bob Barker’s book too and I’m usually not a reader of celebrity memoirs.
I’m hoping Bob shows up in my mailbox this week too!
You had a great week, Kathy. I would watch out for the wet nurse’s tale. I can’t say that sounds too appealing to me. It gives me flashbacks. LOL! You’ll have to let me know about the Bob Barker book. Does he read it? If so, I might just have to get my hands on that one.
Ohhh – I’m SOOOOO jealous that you got Easy on the Eyes. . . and your bookmark is so cute! 🙂
Take care Kathy!! ~ Wendi
Nice mailbox loot, The Wet Nurse’s Tale sounds great, I’ve seen it on a few blogs now. Enjoy
What a great haul! I haven’t heard of any of these books. I will have to check them out.
love the bookmark–and am FROTHING about the bob barker audio book! i am putting it on my library request list right now!
The Wet Nurse’s Tale must be a good book, I have seen it on several blogs now.
Have a great week and enjoy your reading!
I love the bookmark! Enjoy the book.
Can’t wait to see what’s in this space post BEA 😉
Love the bookmark! Looks like some great books. I’m waiting on the Bob Barker one.
