I love that bookmark! Great win. Enjoy your books.
okay, all right, here we go:
I’m going to read with eagerness your review of Case Histories….
🙂
You are one lucky lady to win such wonderful prizes. I hope you enjoy!
You had a great week! There are a few books in that stack that caught my eye, so I’m really looking forward to your reviews.
Nice book mark..You got Case Histories. have heard good things about it. Hope you enjoy reading it ..
I haven’t read Kate Atkinson’s books so I’ll be looking forward to your thoughts. Love that bookmark/card…that’s such a unique idea!
Girl Who Fell From the Sky is one I want to read. Have a great week- looks like you have lots of books to get you started!
I haven’t even heard of any of these books! I hope you enjoy them, and I look forward to reading your thoughts.
Kathy love the bookmark. You got another week of some really good wins. Enjoy!
You received a lot of nice books, but Case Histories really caught my eye. It sounds like much more than the usual detective story. Will look forward to your review.
Can’t wait to hear what you think of Case Histories!
I can’t wait to read your review of “When You Went Away”. I just finished Michael Baron’s “Crossing the Bridge” and enjoyed it!
Looks like a great stack. Enjoy! I really like Case Histories.
Score! I got none, which is okay since I already feel guilty about the ones I have received and have not had time to read.
Happy reading!

I have a couple of Kate Atkinson’s books which I still haven’t read. I wish there were more reading hours in the day.
I love those cards! Congrats for winning 🙂
The volume of books you receive astounds me! I applaud your rate of reading and am jealous:)
Another great haul this week! Enjoy all your new books – and that wonderful bookmark!
Nice crop – and it’s the second Kate Atkinson I see today and I really like her. Case Histories was actually the first one of hers I read. Happy reading!
Busy week for you! My mailbox is at The Crowded Leaf.
Nice list. I’m looking forward to reviews of When Will There Be Good News?
I have Case Histories on my TBR. It looks like you received a variety this week. 🙂
Great Haul.. 🙂 Love that bookmark. Enjoy and have a great week.
What a great stack of books! I LOVE the bookmark!!
Wow! Great Collection! I read Case Histories quite some time ago and would be interested in hearing what you think of it.
Enjoy!
You always have such a great mailbox. I love the bookmark!
Kathy…great books. I’ve been meaning to read Atkinson so I’m looking forward to seeing what you think of these.
So very awesome that you won the special bookmark! I was thinking about buying a few for the girls in my book club. I also have a copy of Case Histories and haven’t yet read it, I hope you like it. Maybe your review will inspire me to pick my copy up!
That’s an awesome bookmark! Enjoy your books!
I’m looking forward to your review for When Will There Be Good News. Love the bookmark! Enjoy all your new books!
Kate Atkinson is a great author. I need to read more by her.

ooh! I’m coveting THE GIRL WHO FELL FROM THE SKY … great book stack, Kathy (and I’m glad you like the bookmark/card!)
I agree with Dawn – I am coveting “The Girl Who Fell from the Sky,” too!
PS – I gave you a blog award!

The Girl Who Fell From the Sky has caught my eye too. I went on Amazon and and the review was compelling. It sounds like a deeply moving story. I will wait to read your review of it.
Great books! Girl Who Fell From The Sky is the one that is grabbing my attention…. I am going to look up more on that one. Have a great reading week!
Great books! Great bookmark!

Great books in your mailbox. I hear that Case Histories by Atkinson is good.
Looks like you got some great books. happy reading.
I’m reading Case Histories for book club right now. It’s interesting. Nothing like I thought it would be (but in a good way).
The Girl Who Fell From the Sky is now on my TBR pile. Great pile of books. Thanks for sharing.
What a great haul! The Kate Atkinson books were particular favorites of mine. Can’t wait to read what you think.
Great mailbox! I love the bookmark as well.
