Mailbox Monday (69)

I got way too many books this week so I am linking up with Mailbox Monday again!  I haven't had much time to read lately but I'm hoping to change that this month.  I think I have more books than I know what to do with but it doesn't hurt to have options!

My daughter was sick all last week so I've been mostly cooped up with her and I'm actually glad to be back at work today!  She was pretty sick so except for trips to the doctor and Walgreens, we were pretty much home bound.  I'm glad that she's finally feeling better, it got a little scary there for a bit.  

March will be busy at work but it will be fun too so I'm ready for the challenge.  Here's to a good week and month!

    It's scary when little ones get so sick. Glad she's feeling better! I enjoyed A Bridge Across the Ocean.

    I'm glad your daughter is better. My whole family was sick in January. I've had my eye on
    The Bridge Across the Ocean. Hope you enjoy all your new books!

    ENJOY your books.

    I enjoyed A BRIDGE ACROSS THE OCEAN - great historical fiction and women's fiction.

    That is scary when your child is sick for that long. Glad she is doing better.

    ENJOY your week.

    I'm glad your daughter is getting better. We have had terrible bouts of 'flu B' and strep throat running through the children (and adults) in our community. It can be scary when the younger ones have fever spikes.

    You have lots of good looking/sounding books. Ebony & Ivy sounds like interesting history although it has received mixed reviews. A Bridge Across has been getting good feedback. Sorry I missed those two freebies. The Last Paradise sounds like a good, maybe dark, historical thriller.
    I'm glad you linked up at MM.
    Happy Reading!

      Strep and flu, that sounds awful! I'm glad we didn't run into those. Thanks for stopping by!

Mailbox Monday (49)

It's time for another Mailbox Monday post!  Once again I could not resist the cheap ebooks that Amazon and Barnes and Noble were promoting this week.  I really need to stop!  I already have more than I can read.  I also was able to spend a little time browsing at the library and I came home with a nice stack of books.  These days, I hardly ever get to spend time at the library by myself for more than a minute or two so it was wonderful to have time to just wander and see what I could find. Purchased (for kindle): The Color of Secrets by Lindsay Ashford The One I Was by Eliza Graham House of Bathory by Linda Lafferty   Purchased (for nook): One Night in Winter by Simon Sebag Montefiore  Becoming Queen Victoria by Kate Williams From the Library: The Messenger by Daniel Silva   The Ripper's Wife by Brandy Purdy Hotel Moscow by Talia Carner Brazen by Katherine Longshore What books did you get...

Review and Giveaway: "This Son of York" by Anne Easter Smith

Synopsis: Now is the winter of our discontent, Made glorious summer by This Son of York…” — William Shakespeare, Richard III Richard III was Anne’s muse for her first five books, but, finally, in This Son of York he becomes her protagonist. The story of this English king is one of history’s most compelling, made even more fascinating through the discovery in 2012 of his bones buried under a car park in Leicester. This new portrait of England’s most controversial king is meticulously researched and brings to vivid life the troubled, complex Richard of Gloucester, who ruled for two years over an England tired of war and civil strife. The loyal and dutiful youngest son of York, Richard lived most of his short life in the shadow of his brother, Edward IV, loyally supporting his sibling until the mantle of power was thrust unexpectedly on him. Some of his actions and motives were misunderstood by his enemies to have been a deliberate usurpation of the throne, but thr...
