  1. Ooh, tempting books! I've been wanting to read Arcadia....

    Love your kitty-with-bunny-ears in the sidebar.

    Thanks for visiting my blog, and I am sure I'm going to love the Anne Tyler book. She never disappoints. Love those quirky characters.

    Have a great week!

  5. I would have to say I'd be thrilled with all three of these books. I haven't heard about the Stephen King, but I've heard about Arcadia and, of course, I enjoy Chris Bohjalian

  7. Oooh, a new Bohjalian - can't wait to hear about it!

  8. I love the title and cover of the Stephen King--is it a horror story? I would read him more if he didn't write such disturbing stories! :)

  12. Dave is eagerly awating the Stephen King book. Have you read the series? He keeps trying to convince me I should, but it just doesn't sound like my "cup of tea".

    I'm eagerly awating Grisham's latest, which I also see you have. It looks much more interesting.

    Have a happy reading week.

  15. Hi Diane,

    I haven't read any Stephen King for years, but always used to love his horror books. It seems as though he is among the growing number of authors who have now re-invented themselves as fantasy authors, which I am afraid puts me off catching up with him again.

    I love the sound of 'The Sandcastle Girls', as well as the brilliant cover art. This kind of story, which spans the generations and time zones, never ceases to captivate and hold me...A definite for my reading list.

    Thanks for sharing and I hope that you have a great week,

    Yvonne

  25. I can't wait to hear your thought on Arcadia--I adored it! The new Bohjalian looks intriguing too. I know he's a favorite of yours, so I'll be curious to hear your thoughts on that too. Happy reading!

  26. I'm really looking forward to reading The Sandcastle Girls. I'm all about historical fictions about places I don't know much about.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Great selection! I'm really curious about Arcadia; I wasn't such a fan of her previous book but I'm still curious about this one.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I've been living under a rock, apparently, never ready anything by King or Bohjalian. Groff - I'd never read again, ever! 2 of her books were enough for me - ugh!!!

    ReplyDelete
  29. I have not read any of those books. I might look at the Sandcastle Girls.

    ReplyDelete

  32. Not sure if Blogger ate my comment or not. If so, just delete this one?

    What I said originally was--I've heard such great things about Arcadia. And such a pretty cover as well.

    Happy reading!
