Nice haul! MARIANA sounds very good. I’m starting THE SHADOWY HORSES today, my first Susanna Kearsley book.
Ooh, I’ve heard great things about Love Anthony and The Financial Lives of Poets. It looks like you’re in for some good reading.
Mariana looks great…..I also like Lisa Genova. I am sure Love Anthony will be good.
I also like the look of those cookies.
ENJOY!!!!

I really enjoyed Mariana. So jealous of your Love Anthony audio!! Enjoy your wonderful stash.
I really enjoyed The Financial Lives of the Poets and then Walter surpassed that even with his latest Beautiful Ruins (which I notice you too had the wonderful experience of listening to Edoardo Ballerini’s narration of of).
I love the look of Vanity Fare – blueberry biscuits and books, what could be more delicious – enjoy!
Mariana is the one I’ve got to get to soon. Congratulations on the GH win you are in for a treat.
Cool Heyer win
Nice collection of books, Mary! Enjoy.
Another great selection, happy reading.
The Financial Lives Of the Poets was an amazing book, and one of my very favorites. I am betting that you are going to love it. Nice new additions today!
Mary, seems like this is an awesome group of books!! ENJOY!!
Nice week! A few of those are on my ever growing wishlist.
The Financial Lives of Poets is excellent – hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
I’ll be curious to see what you think of Love Anthony.
I have all of those Heyer books!!
I am a bit obsessed with her as I have over 20 in my collection!! All of your other books look fantastic!! I have Love Anthony on my Kindle..must read it soon!
Marianna is on my TBR mountain, I loved The Shadowy Horses and can’t wait to read more of her work. I’ve heard good things about Love Anthony, I read Still Alice last week, it was so moving, terrifying disease.
Enjoy your new reads
I bought Mariana too. Congrats on the win.Envious Casca is pretty good. I like Heyer’s mysteries. Have a good week, Mary, and enjoy your new books.
It looks like you had a terrific week!
