Wow! You had quite a week! I was hoping to get The Only True Genius... but haven't yet and I love Debbie Macomber. I did read the Twilight series and liked it. I didn't love it but I probably would have if I was a teenager. I didn't get many last week but they look like fun. My list is here. Hope you have a great week!
Great week you had :)
My first ever mailbox Monday so I am looking at blogs :)
Did read Twilight, and the 1st book was cute, the last one ok. Can't call her a great author but they are fun to read.
My mailbox
Wow! Excellent week! I have the first three Twilight books, but haven't read them yet. I didn't even see the movie yet. They do look wonderful, though.
Wow! Lucky you! Good thing you made room by sending so many out. You received such a good variety. My mailbox is up.
Holy penguins! What a week you had. I'd like to get that Debbie Macomber one too. You must have had a busy week wrapping books up for shipment.
My mailbox is here
Now that is a list of books that entered your home!!! Enjoy them :-)
wow 18 in one week! o my...you are getting as bad as I am! Happy Reading...here's my mailbox: http://savvyverseandwit.blogspot.com/2009/03/mailbox-monday-21.html
That's a heck of a list. I'm looking forward to the Debbie Macomber book
Thanks so much for recommending my book, First Art. If someone wants to see sample pages from the book, go to my website, and then to "Free Activities".

I have sample pages from all of the books I have written so people can try them out.
I love your blog! Good job!

PS I have a new book you might like...in FULL COLOR!!!...called "Great American Artists for Kids".
You certainly had quite a haul last week, Wendi--and congratulations on the 42 OUT!
I would LOVE to have the Twilight boxed set...lucky you!
Wow, you got rid of 42 books? Good for you! I'm looking forward to your review of The Only True Genius in the Family (which I reviewed recently). Happy reading!
Thanks for dropping by!
You sent out 42 books????!!! WoW!!
Your mailbox was full of wonderful stuff!! I saw several books that I would love to get my hands on...especially A Homemade Life and the Only True Genius...look forward to your reviews!
Wow - what a haul! I also got Jennie Nash's book :)
You got some great books! I can't believe you sent out 42 books in one week - wow! Thanks for visiting my blog earlier :)
Wow! What a week. I'm jealous of the early childhood books; look like good ones.
What a fantastic haul of books!! Enjoy reading them.
I have only read the first book in the Twilight series - but enjoyed it very much. I need to get the other books.
I haven't tried Debbie Macomber yet - but I do have a bunch of her books in my TBR pile.
Thanks for visiting my blog!!!
That's an amazing lot of books. So many great ones for kids.
I am so jealous of the fact that you got 18 books sent to you in just one week!
Mind you I don't envy you having to package up another 42 and as for the postage costs ... well that must have cost you an absolute fortune to send all those out.
I just saw that you said you hadn't read any of Tess Gerritsen's books yet - I can only recommend them!!!
I'm very impressed that you got rid of more than you took in. You had another great week!
Thank you for stopping by the mailbox this week. You had a great book week. Enjoy! 'Palace Circle' is yours and should be there in a week or two.
Boy, you sure gave a lot away. Now you have room for more books. ;P I probably should start finding homes for some of my books, but I have a hard time parting with them.
You had a busy week book-wise, lots of variety. Happy reading!
