Mailbox Monday


Mailbox Monday is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page.
I didn't participate last week because our internet was down here at ye olde homestead. Surprisingly I didn't get that many new books over the past two weeks. I even resisted the urge to buy anything new for myself at B&N this weekend. I bought Miss Nelson is Missing and Miss Nelson is Back by Harry Allard and James Marshall for my son (who promptly threw them down on the couch with a "but I didn't want any BOOKS mom.") Here is what I did get though:
From PBS:

  • Lady of the Roses by Sandra Worth
  • The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson
  • The Perfect Royal Mistress by Diane Haeger


And that's it for me :)

  2. Your son is too funny - it sounds like you should have bought books for yourself instead! LOL The books you got look good.

  7. They all look good...I always get a little nuts when my Internet is down (or the computer is broken!).

    Hope you enjoy them (and your computer service).

    Here's my MM:

    great books this week. i have the first larsson book on my shelf, but i haven't gotten around to reading it yet. i'm debating whether or not i should try to get all three before starting it or just starting it now.
