Let me know what awesome books you’re reading or listening to in the comments. Have a good week!
Hi Lucy,
You have so many great books featured this week and all from new to me authors, that I just couldn’t select a couple for my own reading list.
I am not a huge fan of audio books, however Penguin Audio have enlisted some fantastic narrators for the ‘Matilda’ series, so I hope that you really enjoy listening to them.
Have a great week,
Yvonne.
Nice haul! I walked away with SO many books when I visited the Strand!!
And I’m glad the p’back edition of Fingerprints is the same as the gorgeous hardcover (at least from what I can see!0
You have quite a list here. I hope you enjoy the Roald Dahl reads! I subscribed to your blog, so I am looking forward to your reviews 😀
Whoa! That is so awesome! I think I’m glad that I live far from The Strand otherwise I’d be broke. Lovely haul, enjoy!
Wow, so many great books! I’ve been wanting to read OCD Love Story and Criminal, I haven’t heard a lot about either of them so I’ll be looking forward to reading your thoughts on them. Astor Place Vintage also sounds like fun. Enjoy your new books!
Wow…what a great mailbox.
I can’t get into audio. ENJOY your books and your week.

Holy cow, Kate Winslet narrating Matilda has got to be AMAZING!!! I need to give that a try, for sure.
