It looks like you had a terrific week for receiving books. Some of these books sound wonderful. I look forward to reading your reviews.
You had a great mailbox : ) Mine was empty this week.
What a great week! I think I may have received two books, but any more than that and I start to get antsy! I want to read them all RIGHT NOW!
Nothing for me last week but that’s okay. A good chance to catch up. Now for you, young lady, you have a lot of fun ahead of you. Enjoy all your new books. I’m going to check out that Secret Mandarin. Have a great week!
I’ve had my eye on The Things That Keep Us Here. I’ll look forward to your review!
I’m so glad you got The Recipe Club because you actually make recipes and then share the pictures with us!
I can’t WAIT to read The Recipe Club!! Right up my alley…
Cute notecards. The Secret Mandarin looks delicious. I have Cowboy and Wills here too so I’ll be waiting for your review since I’ve tucked it away for awhile to concentrate on things I committed to reading!
We overlapped by only one book! Recipe Club, which I’m looking forward to.
You had quite a week with some really interesting titles!
I purchased Between Me and the River by Carrie Host and am enjoying it so far.
Nice haul, as ususal 🙂 The Recipe Club looks good.
Glad you received your win!
Also I second the commenter above, please post goodies from The Recipe Club. Food & Books are two of my favorite things in life!
Cowboy and Wills sounds a bit sad, but I cant wait to read it! Enjoy your books.
The Recipe club will be a good submission for BethFish’s new weekly showcase of food related posts.
Great stuff this week 🙂
Great selection.. I must say it’s great fun for u guys. We in this part of the world have to wait a longer time to get these wonderful books
cool books Kathy, I really like the title “The Things That Keep Us Here”. Hope you enjoy all the books.
So many books! Don’t know how you even choose which one to read first.
I received See How Much I Love You by Luis Leante and Rage by Sergio Bizzio. Both were sent to me by Meryl Zegarek Public Relations. First time I’ve received books from that firm, so new experience for me.

Wow, now that is a nice bunch of books! The
Things That Keep Us Here is one that has caught my eye. Enjoy your new goodies!
Great list. Here’s mine: http://fredasvoice.blogspot.com/2009/11/media-monday.html
Wow, you sure get a lot of books! I didn’t get any new books last week, which is just as well. I still have a huge TBR pile.

I also noticed Recipe Club! I haven’t heard about it (or any of your other newly acquired books) but it sounds great.
You got lots of good books. I love the notecards.
I have NurtureShock too. I wonder which of us will get to it first!
You did well I’d say! The notecards are adorable!
Wow! Every day is like Christmas. Enjoy!
A nice full mailbox. I hope you enjoy all your books!
I want to read the recipe club! It’s always good to mix foods and books.
Happy reading!
Here’s my Mailbox
I haven’t heard of any of those, I don’t think, but I hope they all turn out to be awesome 🙂
They all look interesting but The Recipe Club looks like the best one to me!
Cheers! It was so nice to meet you “in person” this weekend.
The Po Bronson looks great – I love his writing enough that I think anything he would write would be worth reading.
Wow, so many of these look like great books! I am really curious about The Recipe Club, The Secret Mandarin, and One Hundred Butterflies. The others look intriguing as well.
I got the Square Piano book as well- looks good! 🙂
I love the notecards you got. Those are darling!
You had a good week. Love the notecards! I’m hoping to get Cowboy and Wills too.
I got the butterfly book and it was georgeous! I have The Recipe Club; just need to get it read.
I love your mailbox!! We have a few books in common this week 🙂
🙂 I’ve got a copy of The Recipe Club just begging me to pick it up!! It looks like a wonderful book, and one I think my book club would enjoy.

I love books in the box. What a cool selection of new reads.
Love the notecards! And you also received a great assortment of books. The Secret Mandarin sounds good.

I’ll be interested to see what you think of Nurture Shock. I generally stay away from parenting books but it looks like it might be interesting. OR totally infuriate me…:O)
I just added Recipe Club to my tbr and I’m curious to see what you think of Nurture Shock. I think I’d be nodding my head along as I read…
