Great haul! I am ogling The Book of Lost and Found….and curious about What You Left Behind. Enjoy your week….and thanks for visiting my blog.
Happy reading
I like all those books. Really like “Two Across” and “Harriet….”
What You Left Behind and The Last Leaves Falling sound really good!
Oh, so many books I’m only discovering now! The Last Leaves Falling sounds very different and intriguing – gorgeous cover as a bonus! Enjoy your new books!
I’m reading The Last Leaves Falling now. It’s a quiet, moving book. Hope you track it down!
I loved A Thousand Pieces of You and can’t wait to continue the story in Ten Thousand Skies Above You. I have’t seen anywhere to request an eGalley though.
It was on Edelweiss but it looks like they took away the request button 🙁
Thanks. I’ve been checking for it but must have missed it.
