Sunday Post and Mailbox Monday: The Spoiled Edition

Sunday Post is a new meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer.

Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week and explore great book blogs. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.  It's being hosted by Cindy's Love of Books this month.

Okay, guys, I'm trying out two new memes to show you what I got in my mailbox this week. I don't know where I'll eventually land so bear with me! This week was a very, very good week for me!


 





This one was signed!

This one was signed. Woot!




 








Thank you to all of the authors, publishers, publicists and book tours!!!

And also, I won one book this week from the lovely Lucy of Enchanted by Josephine (signed and everything):


So yes, a huge week for me. What did you get in your mailbox?

    The Divorce of Henry VIII definitely looks like something I would read! Believe it or not, I got nothing new this week! So I have time to let the dust settle after all the upheaval of last week.

      I think these are two solid memes. I may do both for awhile!

    Wow, this is a huge haul! And A Fair Concubine looks amazing! Considering my own heritage, I should probably start to read novels with Asian protagonists! *grin*

      I really, really like Jeannie Lin's writing and definitely suggest her. I love historical fiction and am starting to like historical romance (her genre) more and more. It's hard to find books about Asia in those genres so I'm always way excited when I do!

    I, too, am trying out the Sunday Post. I like giving my readers a little insight into my life and into what's been happening on the blog.

    I love that you read such a wide variety of books! Great blog!

      I've met very few books that I won't at least try. I'm just not that big on mystery, horror, or thrillers. Anything else is fair game ;)

    There's several of these that I'd just love to read. But I think My Fair Concubine and The Innocents jump out at me the most.

      I think the author of The Innocents may be a debut author (not 100% on that though). I've read other things by Jeannie Lin and really, really enjoyed them. I totally recommend her!

    I have been seeing a few of those titles on other blogs this month. You got a great selection of titles this week. Enjoy.

    I just wanted to thank you for stopping by and linking your IMM. I had so much fun checking out what you got and discovering a new blogger.

      I read Tapestry of Love by Rosy Thornton last year and loved it. I have good feelings about Ninepins!

      I've been waiting to read State of Wonder for a really long time so I jumped at the chance to be on a blog tour for that book. I only learned of The Homecoming of Samuel Lake recently.

Hi! Welcome to A Bookish Affair. If you leave a comment, I will try to either reply here or on your site!

As of 6/6/2011, this book is now an awards free zone. While I appreciate the awards, I would rather stick to reviewing more great books for you than trying to fill the requirements.
