Mailbox Monday - 11/7/16

 
Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week.

Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles, and humongous wish lists!

Mailbox Monday, created by Marcia @ A Girl and Her Books, has a permanent home now at Mailbox Monday.
 *****************
Every week Mailbox Monday will have a new linky posted for our Mailbox Monday links at Marcia's Mailbox Monday blog.
Here’s a shout out to the new administrators:

 Leslie of Under My Apple Tree 
Vicki of I’d Rather Be at the Beach
Serena @ Savvy Verse And Wit 

THANKS to everyone for keeping Mailbox Monday alive.
*************** 
I hope you had a good mailbox.

My mailbox was empty again, but I am fine with that fact.

ENJOY this week of reading, and thanks for stopping.

    I am almost finished with a book I received in my mailbox the week before.

    It is very good...THE SECRETS YOU KEEP by Kate White.

    I hope you had an overflowing mailbox, and if you didn't, I hope you have found something wonderful to read from your shelves.

    Thanks for stopping.

      It is fun to get books, but I agree an empty mailbox is a good thing too.

      As long as the books I want to read are popping in my mailbox from time to time, I am happy. :)

      Thanks for stopping, Kathy.

    I do enjoy an empty mailbox...especially if it means fewer review books. I am feeling caught up at the moment.

    Enjoy reading your own books, and thanks for visiting my blog.

      I love reviewing books, but it does get overwhelming when there are so many waiting.

      I am pretty caught up too. Feels nice.

      Thanks for stopping, Laurel.

    I've only been accepting a few books here and there for review, so my mailbox has been empty a lot this year. But, I'm ok with that too!

      The same here...not accepting as many books.

      I also spread them out so I am not stressed about getting my review promise done.

      Thanks for stopping, Vicki.

    And you thought that my book this week was scary !!

    'The Secrets You Keep' sounds brilliant and I can't believe that I haven't come across this author before.

    Luckily, this is a stand alone story, so adding it to my list works fine.

    I hope that you are enjoying the read and I can't wait to see what your final thoughts are.

    Thanks for bringing the author to my attention and have a good week :)

      Kate White does have some good books.

      The other book I read by this author was EYES ON YOU.

      Thank you for stopping, Yvonne.

      I just finished The Secrets You Keep. Excellent.

      Oh yes....I loved Scotland and especially The Isle of Skye.

      My header is a photo I took in Portree, Scotland.

      Thanks for stopping, Mary M.

    I only had one new 'review' (ladies book club) book and that is a break for me too. Hope this is a good week for you.

      My week is good so far, thanks.

      I have been slowing down on requesting books so I am not too disappointed in my empty mailbox.

      Thanks for stopping, Martha.

    I think books are our addiction. Even though I'm okay with an empty mailbox, I still feel disappointed when I don't find a package in it!!

      Yes...it is disappointing, but I have slowed down on requesting books so it is to be expected. :)

      I cannot pass up a book I KNOW I will love, though. I definitely request that one. :)

      Thanks for stopping, Laura.

    Bookless mailboxes are great for catching up, I have no problem with that (though they rarely do happen, ha!)
    I wish you a great week, in reading and everything else!
