Mailbox Monday is being hosted for May by Martha
It's Monday What Are You Reading? is hosted by Sheila at Book Journey.
My Mailbox was quite full this week mainly because I found the time to go hunting for books!
Shortlisted for the Booker Prize in 2001 (you can see how long it takes me to get to the Booker!!!)
this is considered one of McEwan's best books.
Fell in love with the cover a long while ago but got it only now this is Mustian's debut novel.
Part of a gemstone triology this is the last book.
Set in 1966 which makes it more or less my time! with a name like Smoky O'Donnel I couldn't resist.
I am just starting Barbara Kingsolver's Prodigal Summer. I got quite a bit of reading done this last week but not much of reviews as I was away from home most of the time.
Have a good week everyone!

I liked the Gendarme a lot; hope u do as well. Prodigal Summer is one of those books that I've been meaning to read for years --enjoy
You have lots of good reading coming up! I'm not familiar with At Ruby's - I need to check that one out. Enjoy!
I also like the book cover of The Gendarme and want to read the book. My review partner has read Frank Delaney and loves his writing. Enjoy your new books!
Oh, Downtown is one I've missed...I'll have to check it out. Love that time period, too.
I read Atonement awhile back...wow!
Enjoy your reads....
Here's MY MONDAY MEMES POST
I really liked The Gendarme too. Anything by Anne Rivers Siddons should be a good read. I'm putting this one on the list. Have a wonderful week, Mystica, and happy reading.
Some great reads there Mystica. The Gendarme caught my eye, the cover is quite intriguing.
Have a great week and happy reading :)
YAY some great reads! The weather is calling to me to grab a book and get in it :)
Heard good things about Atonement. Hope you enjoy it!
Enjoy all your new reads!
I like seeing what people get. You got some very interesting books. New follower. Come visit me as well.
I hope you enjoy Atonement, I read it a couple of years ago and liked it :)
Lovely reads! Hope you enjoy them all.
Downtown and Prodigal Summer are ones I've missed by fav authors. Enjoy.
Prodigal Summer and Atonement have both been sitting on my shelf too for, oh, a while!
I'm intrigued by Prodigal Summer...I've never read anything by Barbara Kingsolver - this might be the first one!
Have a great week!

These all look really good to me.
Happy Reading!
Love Siddon's books, but haven't read that one.
Atonement is wonderful! I'm sure you will love it!
I have The Genardme on my kindle so I'll be interested to see what you think of it. Happy reading!
Atonement has been on my TBR list for a while - I'll be interested to see what you think of it
Have a great reading week!
