Mailbox Monday

Mailbox Monday is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page.

I'm expecitng a busy week ahead so I thought I'd post this a little early. I got a bunch of hopefully great reads in the mail this week, all from PBS:
  • A Feast for Crows by George R. R. Martin
  • Breathing Lessons by Anne Tyler
  • Brigid of Kildare by Heather Terrell
  • Daughter of Fortune by Isabel Allende
  • Empire Falls by Richard Russo
  • Frommer's England 2009 by Porter & Prince
  • Fingersmith by Sarah Waters
  • Lady's Maid by Margaret Forster
  • The Hours by Michael Cunningham
  • Possession by A.S. Byatt


I have been reading I, Elizabeth by Rosalind Miles for over a week now! I like it but its just taking me awhile to get through. I plan on finishing it up this week. I will also be reviewing Galway Bay by Mary Pat Kelly over at Royal Reviews on wednesday. Hope everyone has a wonderful week of reading.

    I really liked Empire Falls and I've had Galway Bay on my shelf for a year - thanks for the reminder. Have a great week!

    A lot of great books in there! I've been wanting to read one of Isabel Allende's books ever since I heard an interview of her. Enjoy!

    Oh my these all look so delicious! I am green with envy. Possession is good, and the movie version is good as well. Hope you enjoy your new books! My mailbox is at The Crowded Leaf.

    What a wonderful selection! Possession and Empire Falls are fantastic, and the Allende book is good (though I still prefer Eva Luna and The House of the Spirits to all her other books). The Hours is great too. Enjoy!
