Mailbox Monday

Mailbox Monday was created by Marcia at The Printed Page. MM is currently on tour and is being hosted by Rose City Reader for the month of January.

This week I took my son to 2 libraries and stopped at 1 Goodwill and I found some awesome bargains on books!

From PBS:
  • Secrets of the Tudor Court: Between Two Queens by Kate Emerson


From the Goodwill:
  • Shadow Princess by Indu Sundaresen
  • The Scarlet Contessa by Jeanne Kalogridis
  • Now Face to Face by Karleen Koen


From Cheapstacks Used Bookstore in the Grand Haven Library:
  • Queen of Swords by Judith Tarr
  • A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly


From the For Sale section of the Norton Shores Library:
  • The Road by Cormac McCarthy
  • No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy


Grand total for this shopping spree: $7.20! Hope everyone else had some fabulous finds this week!

    The Road is an excellent read, but very dark.

    You are a book shopper extraordinaire!

    Northern Light was a great read, and I like Jeanette Kalogridis books as well! One of these days I will read Karleen Koen.
