    I really need to get back to the Morland books! I liked The Postmistress when I read it last year too.

    I have won The Postmistress and just anxiously awaiting this. I have almost the entire series of the Morland dynasty (many reviews up on the blog) Beautiful stories and gorgeous period setting.

    I read The Executioner's Song years ago - I think it was before I was married and remember being blown away by it. I wonder what I would think of it now. I hope you love your new books.

    You received some great books. The only book on the list I've read is The Handmaid's Tale, which I loved, but I have several others sitting on my shelf waiting to be read...including The Hypnotist, which I'll also be reviewing.

    Enjoy!

    What a great selection of books! I got The Postmistress on my last trip to the FOL sale too (then I got home and realized I already owned a copy - oops!).

    Elizabeth & Catherine book is new to me and it sounds good. I have The King's Mistress but haven't read it yet. Hope you enjoy your new books!
