4. A Disobedient Girl by Ru Freeman for a TLC Book Tour in September.
5. Bloody Awful by Georgia Evans for review.

Books I received from my mother in the mail:

7. Finger Lickin' Fifteen by Janet Evanovich
8. Swimsuit by James Patterson
9. 8th Confession by James Patterson
10. Daniel X: Watch the Skies by James Patterson

  1. Wow! That is a nice, chunky list! I just downloaded The Woman in White on my Kindle. And I must get my hands on the latest Stephanie Plum. That will keep my busy for oh...a few hours at least!

  14. Oh fun, a book sale! I read Azadeh Moaveni's latest book this year. It was interesting although I felt a bit of a disconnect with the author. I would still pick up another of her books though. Hope you like this one. Oh and I'm really looking forward to your reviews of the Georgia Evans books... Still not sure if I want to follow up with that series.

  18. I missed our last library sale, but it seems that ours is overpriced anyway.

    I need to remember to put the Evanovich on my library list too.

  23. Although I loved the first thirteen Stephanie Plum books and liked the fourteenth well enough, I recently posted a review telling why I didn't like Finger Lickin Fifteen very much.
