My daughter is coming home from college for the weekend. It will be nice to have her home for a couple of days. Tonight we are going out to dinner to celebrate my mom’s birthday. I have my fingers crossed that Sunday will be a quiet day.

Yes, I know that this is an obnoxious number of books to add in a single week. I got three books from the Book of the Month club. I picked up three books from the sale cart at the gym that I use which cost me a total of $1. We visited a neat used bookstore when we visited my daughter at her college last week and I picked up two more books. And publishers were very kind to me this week and sent 4 books for review.
It's always fun to bask in the glow of a big book haul! *jealousy*
OOoh nice!! I'm excited about The Crimson Flower & Don't Breathe a Word! Lots of new lovelies this week! I hope you enjoy them all!
I hope you have a nice weekend with your daughter home too!
Happy Reading!
My StS will be up tomorrow, so stop by then if you can!
Have a GREAT day!

What a haul!! <3 Enjoy!
Looks like a great haul for the week!
Fun that you got to see your daughter and had a calm week after the headache. Whew-ee! Nice haul! I caught the Book Outlet Octoberfest and a used bookstore so we'll share some book buying shame. LOL
Have a good week, Carole!
It's nice that you got out and were able to see a football game and your daughter. Have a nice visit with her this weekend.
Books are always welcome and a must 😉
I'm glad you are getting to see your daughter with some regularity. What a book haul! I hope you feel better and feel like you get a lot done this week.

Such a great haul! I love Bone Crossed so much! And Spinning Silver is one I keep meaning to read. Happy reading!
I added a few YA books this week that I'm excited about, and a thriller. I've been on a thriller kick lately. I really want to read Spinning Silver by Naomi Novak. I think I may take a storm day this winter and read that one. It seems like such a good book to cuddle up with!
I hope you had a great visit with your daughter. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Awesome haul and really, there's no such thing as too many books!
Happy birthday to your mom! I hope you have tons of fun hanging out with your daughter.

Ah, the things we'll do for our kids—even sit at freezing football games. 🙂 Glad you got some time to visit with her! Enjoy your new reads, too! (There's no such thing as too many books!!)

Happy Birthday to your mom! And I hope you have a nice visit with your daughter. That is a lot of books, but you get no judgement from me. You have some good reading ahead of you!
Oh I love a big book haul! I may have to do some book shopping for myself very soon! So glad that you were able to see your daughter and happy birthday to your mom! Hope the headache is gone and you're having a great week!
Nice that you got to see your daughter but sorry to hear about the headache. So many books last week! It’s so fun to do that sometimes. Hope you find some new favorites in there! 🙂
Glad to hear you got to spend some time with your daughter! ?✨
I still need to read a Joe Hill book. ?
I hope you had a wonderful week. ?
I am glad the game wasn't all too bad. I hope you enjoy having your daughter over this weekend! That sounds like it is going to be fun. And yay for all of the new books. I am curious about Spinning Silver. And I really REALLY want to read The Doors of January and also The Fountains of Silence as well DD: I have heard good things about The Graveyard Book as well.
I so want to read Fountains of Silence! This haul is awesome. And I don't feel so bad about my end of October haul.
Happy reading!
