Mailbox Monday
Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia of The Printed Page and is now on tour. I’m thrilled to be the host of this fun meme for the month of September, and I can’t believe it’s my last week to host. Be sure to check in with Avis of She Reads and Reads next week, since she’s hosting for October. According to Marcia, “Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.”
I left for SIBA Thursday morning but hope to update with reports from home while I’m gone. (I took the photo Wednesday afternoon.) This is what I found in my mailbox last week:
Monday
- The False Friend by Myla Goldberg came from Doubleday
- What I Thought I Knew by Alice Eve Cohen came from Book Sparks PR
- The Gift of Years by Joan Chittister came from Meryl Zegarek Public Relations
Tuesday
- The Wishing Trees by John Shors came from Penguin
Friday
- Composed by Roseanne Cash was a win from Beth Fish Reads
- Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One by David Yoo came from Authors on the Web
- I Heart New York by Lindsey Kelk was a win from Books, Movies and Chinese Food
- Harper Perennial Tote was a win from The Olive Reader
What books came into your home? Here’s the link for those participating this week:

Good week 🙂
Must go and have a look at that wishing tree now
Kathy hope you had a great time at SIBA.
Congrats you did amazing as the hostess with the most-est for the Mailbox Monday.
You won some fine books and going to look up I Heart New York .
Enjoy the reads and again great hosting 🙂
I was offered that John Shors book and I stoically turned it down. Broke my heart, I tell you. I have a feeling that today some serious damage is going to be done to my book stacks. See ya soon!
Thanks for hosting MM all month 🙂 What I Thought I Knew was also in my mailbox last week. Enjoy them all!
The Wishing Tree is making me jealous (LOL). I was hoping for that one. enjoy
Nice assortment of books. I heart New York intrigues me as DS lives there.
Thanks for hosting Mailbox Monday!
Yay so glad you already got I HEART NEW YORK!
Here is mine
Thanks for being a great host!
I’m still trying to work my way through major library visits from previous weeks but I did manage to sneak in a couple new books. See them here: http://historicalfictionnotebook.blogspot.com/2010/09/mailbox-monday_26.html
thanks for hosting imm in september! i can’t believe how fast these months are going by.
hope you enjoy the books you received this week!
Look forward to reading about SIBA.
YAY! A tote too!
I bet you’re going to have a great Monday once you get back from SIBA. Hope you had a great time.
I got one book last week, The Network by Jason Elliot. It was a win from GoodReads. Can hardly wait to read it.
You had great week! The False Friend sounds good. Enjoy your books!
And thanks for hosting this month 🙂
Kathy, thanks for being such a fantastic host and for posting this on Sunday! 😀
Your mailbox is TERRIFIC , again! 🙂
I received False Friend too. Looking forward to reading it. 😀
Another great mailbox for you…thanks for hosting.
ENJOY your books.
Great books, Kathy! Many I’d never heard of. Enjoy.
Wow, another great week of books. All these books are new to me. Thank you for hosting IMM for the month of September!!
Oh, I DO Heart New York. I’m sure I’d love that one. Having the pleasure of living close to NYC now, I love it even more when that wonderful city serves as a backdrop in movies and books and TV.
The Wishing Trees sounds like a real tearjerker. Thanks for hosting MM!
And I was wondering why there were only four books in the picture! Looks like an interesting set of books. Haven’t heard of any, so I’ll be looking for your reviews.
I really want to read the Wishing Trees.
Looks like you got a bunch of good books! Enjoy them all!
Oh, you’ve been a wonderful host this month! Thanks!
Your mailbox looks delightful. The False Friend has caught my eye….
Great mailbox! Have fun with the books! I hope u have a great week ahead 🙂
I think I’d like to read the Wishing Trees. If I’m correct, I believe he also wrote Under a Marble Sky – which I really enjoyed.
COMPOSED is supposed to be fantastic!
I also received The False Friend. Enjoy your books!
Lots of goodies for you! All of those titles are new to me. Happy reading! Thanks for hosting this month 🙂
Great mailbox!
Thanks for hosting this month, and happy reading!
Hereis my mailbox: http://karissabooks.blogspot.com/2010/09/in-my-mailbox-and-mailbox-monday-927.html
Wishing Trees sounds amazing and one of the first books I received from an author when I began blogging was a book from John Shors. I cant wait to hear more about that one!
This is the second time I’ve seen “False Friend” … it sounds very cool! Enjoy ALL of the wonderful books and congrats on the wins and THANKS for hosting this month! Now it’s my turn .. 🙂
Wow, some great books! This is my first Mailbox Monday- I’ve cheated and looked at the books I’ve received over the last month. Need to get reading!
My mailbox is here: http://samstillreading.wordpress.com/2010/09/27/mailbox-monday-27910/
You always get such a good stack of books every week!
Thanks for hosting this month, Kathy!!!

I am getting a copy of Composed as well, and I am looking forward to it. The new Shors book looks really interesting as well. I have read a couple of his already and think that he’s a great author. I hope you enjoy all your new ones, and lord knows, there are a lot of them!!
thanks for the linky
Hi Kathy,
This is really great that you’re hosting. I want to participate in at least one Mailbox Monday that you’re hosting so I’m not going to miss this for the world. I entered my link in Mister Linky! 🙂
These all look great but I am especially envious of The Wishing Trees. My mailbox is here:

I’ve heard great things about The Wishing Trees – enjoy your books!
Wow look at all those awesome books! Hope you enjoy them. Have a great week,
Natalie :0)
The John Shors book is on my wish list. Several people in my online book group have recommended his books. Thanks for hosting this month and for reminding us who is hosting next week. Have a fun week!
Looks like another great week for you. Enjoy!
I’ve heard good things about the Roseanne Cash book, and need to add it to my wish list.
I heard “I heart New York” was really fun. Happy reading!
I am consistently astounded by the amount of books that come into your house! I would never be able to keep up.
Completely enjoyed meeting you as well! Thanks for befriending me when I knew no one. 🙂 Hope we can keep in touch!
Ooh, so many good books this week! (Not that you don’t get good books every week!) I really want to read the bottom three in your photo!
Oh and thanks for mentioning that I’m hosting next month. Hopefully I can remember how to set up the Mr. Linky!
i’ve wanted to join the fun this month but my mailbox has been empty. i always enjoy this meme and you did a great job as a host! 🙂
I never make my posts in time to participate, but I made it this week!
I’m a little slower than usual this week but my link is up now and I should have some time to check out other posts. Likely I will stumble on something that grabs my attention then.
Thanks for hosting this month, Kathy.
I love Roseanne Cash!
