Mailbox Monday

Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia at the Printed Page. It is currently on tour and this month it is being hosted by Rose City Reader

January has been good to me so far. I'm sure my postal carrier has been grumbling as he's had to endure freezing cold temps and huge snow drifts to deliver my precious books :)

So here's the loot:

From PBS:
  • The Virgin Queen's Daughter by Ella March Chase
  • Taking Liberties by Diana Norman
  • The Sparks Fly Upward by Diana Norman
  • The Memoirs of Mary Queen of Scots by Carolly Erickson
  • Kleopatra by Karen Essex
  • The Fourth Queen by Debbie Taylor
  • A Clash of Kings by George R R Martin


Won in the 2010 Jean Plaidy Challenge on Royal Intrigue:
  • The Queen's Favorites by Jean Plaidy
  • Louis the Well-Beloved by Jean Plaidy


Bought from Barnes & Noble:
  • The Children's Book by AS Byatt



Happy reading all!

    You got a A S Byatt! That cover is beautiful... actually all the books in the Mailbox are classic works of art... sigh... can I just look at them all day long.

    I love the layout here and it makes me think how bland mine looks. Will have to come here for those moments of inspiration and ahhhhh so pretty.
