Book Mail:
A Penny For Your Thoughts is one I bought (but took a while to get here) with my Christmas $$ from my SIL. I have had most of the others in the series, but needed this one to be able to read it! I have never found it at any of the libraries we have lived near.
A Christmas Gift from Book blogger Rissi that got a little lost in the mail THANK YOU!!!!!:

You have an ambitious reading program ahead of you!
ReplyDeletebest… mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Mae, as an avid reader there are ALWAYS a lot of books that I will want to read, but not get to ;)
DeleteAll those Kindle freebies look like fun reads. And I want to check out The Happiness Dare. Have a great weekend, Cindy! :D
ReplyDeleteLark, if you have a Kindle (or the Kindle app) grab them today, it's their last free day! I thought they looked fun too!
DeleteFun books! I really want to try gardening again this year (after various fits and starts the last couple years) :)
ReplyDeleteGreg, I haven't had a garden, ever, I don't think. I really want to grow a few herbs and veggies that we use regularly.
DeleteThese look like interesting books, especially the Kindle freebies! I hope you enjoy your reads.
ReplyDeleteMy Stacking the Shelves post.
Thanks Majanka!
DeleteLooks like you've got some gardening planned! Good luck with your garden. And with all those books - looks like a great haul.
ReplyDeleteTerrie @ Bookshelf Journeys
Thanks Terrie! Like I was saying to Greg, I really want to grow some herbs and veggies that we regularly use...here's hoping!
DeleteYou are such a fast reader! I don't get through as many books as I'd like.
ReplyDeleteWish it were summer again. I miss gardening.
Harvee, I am a fast reader, but audiobooks really help! I read my nonfiction books for several weeks, so some weeks I finish an audiobook or two, plus the nonfiction I have been reading for a while, so my weekly stats add up. I have never tried to keep a garden and it makes me nervous to try, but I am hoping to grow some things this spring/summer.
DeleteSo nice to see gardening books here. I have had a small veggie garden for over 10 years, and it's so wonderful!
ReplyDeleteEmma, I want to have one, we will see how it goes!
DeleteGreat haul, Cindy! I'm glad you survived your first week of being a Nanny! I hope you continue to enjoy the job.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy!
DeleteI am glad the new job is working out, Cindy! I am also glad your reading isn't being too affected. It looks like you got some great books to enjoy. I hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy, you as well!
DeleteA Penny For Your Thoughts is great! That whole series was fabulous. It's been a while since I read them, but I remember getting very engrossed in them, although I think a couple had to build a bit before I was racing to finish them.
ReplyDeleteMark, I have had a few of the books for this series for years, so I am thrilled to finally get the first one!! Now I can read the series :)
DeleteGood luck with your new part-time nanny job. That sounds fun. And it's wonderful that you still have plenty of time to read.
ReplyDeleteI'm particularly interested in The Happiness Dare. I can't resist a book about happiness.
Deb, I am enjoying the job, it's with the sweetest family. I am enjoying the Happiness Dare and I am sure you would as well!
DeleteThe gardening books have my attention!
ReplyDeleteTina, right?!
DeleteLooks like you are going to be doing some gardening! I also got a bunch of those free books this past week. Who knows when I will get to them though! Hope you have a good week.
ReplyDeleteLisa Loves Literature
Lisa, yeah, my Kindle overflows, but I typically go for the physical books.
DeleteI need to do more reading on gardening before my spring planting in a few months.
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart This is my Sunday Post
Anne, me too, it just feels overwhelming.
DeleteYou Should Sit Down for This looks interesting. I'll have to keep my eyes out for it going on sale. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend. - Katie
ReplyDeleteKatie, maybe your library has it?
DeleteVicki, I do fine with day lilies because they basically take care of themselves, LOL. I am nervous about a garden.
ReplyDeleteOne thing you can say about your reading choices --- you can not be tied down to one genre or type. Are you starting a garden or expanding your skills?
ReplyDeleteAnne-both, LOL! I am hoping to grow a few herbs, veggies, and maybe a fruit...but I have NEVER done it before and I am a little worried about it.
DeleteI can see a theme to your books Cindy! I hope that you enjoy them all. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodie!
DeleteThat Criss Cross series is also on my overflowing TBR.
ReplyDeleteSarita, you MUST get to it!! It is one of my MOST favorite suspense series!!!
DeleteI picked up those rom coms too. I hope you enjoy your books. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Yvonne!
DeleteGlad you're enjoying your new job! You've got a great line-up of books for this year.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lucy.
DeleteI'm happy you're enjoying the job! I miss gardening. I don't have much free time during the summer, but the kid really wants a garden this year, so I might need to make it happen.
ReplyDeleteAj, I totally understand!
DeleteThose cozies certainly have a "branded look" don't they? Very stylistic covers nowadays. Interesting. Hope they were good reading for you. My latest is here:
