Looks like some good reads there 🙂 Enjoy!

You got a nice pile of books last week Kathy. Nothing in common I don’t think. Happy reading.
Lots of nice loot there. I’m reading 20 Boy Summer too. Nice, fun read.
i have been dying to read 20 boy summer–i can’t wait to see what you think about it! keep me posted, maybe i’ll add it to my reading challenge.
The Chosen One was great. Can’t wait to see what you think! 🙂
That’s a huge week considering that you were at BEA and picking up loads more books!
Books arriving every day. It must have been like Christmas in your house!
Ooh, I’m jealous that you won The Chosen One! Can’t wait to read your review. Enjoy all your books!
Looks really good, that stack of yours! I should be getting The Castaways too but it’s not here yet.
My mailbox is here: http://booknaround.blogspot.com/2009/06/monday-mailbox.html
A lot of interesting books in there.
I am sure you will enjoy them all
I just recently saw Lincoln Child and Douglas Preston at a book signing – they are really great guys and they spoke very highly of the actor who does their audiobooks. Enjoy!
Looking forward to hearing about your NY trip!
So many good ones! I have most of them on the staggering TBR list. I’m getting The Castaways and look forward to it. Can’t wait to read your reviews! Enjoy!
Wow, big contest-win week, eh? I don’t know how many books came in, last week. I keep my book log in the bedroom and never feel like bothering with it on Monday, but I got these in our library’s ARC giveaway:
Valeria’s Last Stand – Marc Fitten
Repeat After Me – Rachel DeWoskin
The Blue Notebook – James A. Levine
Mercury in Retrograde – Paula Froelich
April & Oliver – Tess Callahan
The Brothers Boswell – Philip Barth (this one is the one that thrills me the most, because I have Boswell’s London Diary and want to read it before the fictional account)
Deafening – Frances Itani and
Atlast of Unknowns – Tania James
Good golly, you’ve got a LOT of reading to do, LOL!
Another great pile of books Kathy. Happy Reading!
Wow Kathy! Congratulations on all your wins! I can say that I love both the Bobbi Brown book and the Book for Men! 🙂

Quite the list!! I’m looking forward to the reviews!
You had such lovely wins! I’m interested in how you like Mr. Popper’s Penguins in audio.
I’ve got the Charla Krupp and Bobbi Brown books too. They look like a lot of fun.
Nice books, especially Twenty Buy Summer…
Twenty boy summer is on my wish list!
I don’t have any of the books on your list. They all look great!! Enjoy!
What a great selection of books! I can’t wait to read THE CHOSEN ONE and TWENTY BOY SUMMER; two books I really want to read.
I received Finding Grace a while back, but haven’t read it yet. I’m looking forward to your thoughts. Will you be posting your BEA finds soon??
Nice job on all your wins! I’m sad – I seem to have lost my streak! Enjoy your books.
Goodness, you DO win a lot. Congrats! Probably all that good karma you spread by commenting congrats on all the winner announcement posts. 😉
What a great stack. Enjoy!
You have a great stack! I’ve been on a winning streak for the past several days so I can’t wait for my haul to come in!
Happy reading.
You always get such great books – and so many!
You really got some great books! Hilderbrand is generally a great summer read.
I just received The Chosen One in the mail today, after winning it from Susan of Black-Eyed Susan. I can’t wait to start it! I have Twenty Boy Summer on my TBR list.
