I thought Night was a good book.
Have a great week!
I still don't have my own copy of night..funny isn't it?! Ah well...looks like some great books. Happy reading. We can compare notes on Sang Pak.
Night is a classic! Enjoy your books!
I was clearing out my bookshelves the other day and found Peace Like a River. I have had it for quite some time and totally forgot about it but it seems like it is making the rounds again.
What a great mailbox! I didn't receive any last week....
Enjoy them!
You had a great week! The only book we got in common is The Glass Room. Enjoy!
All of these books look wonderful. I have read "Night" Reading about his life is beyond words. He's a very brave, compassionate man.
What a bounty!
Enjoy!
Very nice Mailbox. I'd love to read Peace Like a River. A one year reading slump has left me with so many must reads. Enjoy your books.
Night is one of those books you never forget. I so want to read The Heretics Daughter and The Lotus Eaters. Enjoy all your books!
Some of these are looking familiar! That Wait Until Twilight really looked goooood. Creepy good.
I have heard good things about some of those, others are new to me. Happy reading
Oh, I loved Peace Like a River!
I just added The Girls to my TBR list.

Wait Until Twilight caught my eye a while back but I haven't read it yet.
Wow...awesome mailbox. I loved Night but it broke my heart.
I know, it's an unforgettable book.

These all look great but The Lotus Eaters has especially caught my eye lately. Enjoy!
I envy you!
Happy reading!
It was freezing here but now it's back in the 60s. I read Night in high school and from I remember I really liked it. Looks like lots of good books, happy reading!
Oh! Make sure I find out what you think about the Snipesville books! =) (I just subscribed to your blog so I can find out for myself but still!)
And thanks for the link up re: Franklin & Winston!
Well I've read The Heretic's Daughter and really liked it.
But I'm very excited that you received a Lansens - she is my all time fav author!
Looks like some great books Anna. Enjoy. It's freezing cold here right now with lots of snow.
WOW Anna...you got lots of great looking books there. The Glass Room is on my 2010 reading list! ENJOY!
The Heretic's Daughter was so good!
HI Anna - we got our first snow too and today is 10 degrees. Blah!
You got some good books. We are reviewing The Heretics Daughter at my blog on Dec 20th. Feel free to join in. :)
I loved Peace Like a River and Heretics Daughter. I posted reviews for both. I have read Night..profound and inspiring. Hope you love your books.
Thank you all for stopping by my mailbox! I've already read "Night" so look forward to my review next week (I hope...I seem to be behind these days because of work and all the holiday preparations).
