I'm excited for it! Ancient Egypt is fascinating! Hoping to get to it by the end of February.

I'm only about 80 pages into it but I like it so far. I just feel like we miss more than one chunk of Lily's story somewhere. But maybe it's just me. The author gives us enough information that we get the gist of it for the most part so it's not really a big deal but I'm just curious why the author left so much of her story out. I had felt that way during book 2 as well, just didn't think too much of it then since Emily was the main character. But again, enjoying the book regardless:-)

[Aerykah]

I got these in the mail yesterday--
I'm still expecting-- and a 4th one of unknown title (I was a winner in a multiple-book giveaway, but I don't know yet which book I won.)

[Bonnie]

Congratulations, Aerykah! Winning giveaways are always nice!

That series by Denise Hunter looks really cute! I look forward to seeing what you think of it.

I was excited to get it! A good friend heartily recommended it, so I hope I can get to it soon.

Thanks! Yes, very nice indeed! ;D I did get a couple of those from PaperBackSwap, though. :)

Lovely haul! I really enjoyed The Apothecary's Daughter and Glamorous Illusions! The Heiress of Winterwood is good too. I haven't read that one by Camden, I'll be interested in your thoughts on it!

[Maria]

Wow Anne! Amazing deals! I recently got The Apothecary's Daughter and Into the Whirlwind too! :)

[Anne]

Thank you ladies! I am so happy :) They all sound so good, but I admit that I am really excited for the Klassen one!! :D Beth, I will definitely let you know about the one by Camden :)

Right? While you're buying one, might as well add more!! :D LOVE your finds! I'm really interested about the Cameron Dokey one, let me know how it is when you get to it :D

Beth, Into the Whirlwind is my 2nd favorite by Camden (the first being Against the Tide). I think the title accurately describes the feel of the book. It was incredible!

Aw, I read some from that fairy tale series - Cameron Dokey was by far my favorite author of the ones I read - I really enjoyed Beauty Sleep and [book:Golden|394724]. I think I read a couple more by her, but those were my favorite of the ones I read.

Oh that's good to know! I hadn't heard much about her before and was hoping she was good! :D I'm looking forward to it!

Checked these out from the library yesterday:

Thanks, Anne! :D I think you would enjoy Anna Dean, if you haven't read her already. :)

Ooh! Fun order! :)

[Caity, that crazy moderator]

There is just something about an order of books coming in the mail that can't be beat by any number of kindle deals, eh? ;)

Yes. I love my kindle but I still read more real books then kindle books.

Thanks! No, I haven't! I certainly keep her in mind :) I totally agree with you about the book orders!! I love my Kindle dearly, but getting real books in the mail is the best feeling!
