Mailbox Monday (35)

Yes, I once again added to my to-read pile this week. But at least I feel like I'm reading books from it quicker than normal. Not necessarily quicker, than I add to it, but one step at a time. Anyways, I'm linking up with Mailbox Monday, which for the month of June is hosted by Dolce Bellezza.
Mailbox Monday
Purchased
A Land More Kind Than Home by Wiley Cash
This is for my monthly book club, and honestly I know nothing about it. But hopefully it's one I enjoy. And if you have heard of it, and know what it's about, feel free to give a shout out in the comments.

The Tudor Secret by C.W. Gortner
I'm actually on a blog tour for the sequel to this later this summer, and wanted to be sure I read this first. I read one of Gortner's books a few years ago and really enjoyed it, so I'm really looking forward to these!

Won in a Giveaway from The Literary Gothamite
This is a historical fiction about the life of author Edith Wharton. I'm always looking for new historical fiction, so can't wait to read this either. Plus it's always fun to read a book won in a giveaway.

    My friend Mandy read A Land More Kind Than Home and really enjoyed it! I just requested the ebook from the library so am hoping to read it this summer!

    I'm reading Beach Music by Pat Conroy which I am really enjoying. It's partially set in South Carolina and partially set in Italy. It's a long book, so I am glad I'm reading it on my nook as I would not want to haul it around in my purse!

    I don't read spy novels often but I liked The Tudor Secret and I've loved Gortner's other books too. Enjoy your books!

    These books are all new to me, but the covers look great. I'm always up for more historical fiction. Enjoy!

    I am a huge book reading fan. I would be so interesting in the Tudor one. I love all sorts of stuff from that illustrious family. Sadly, nothing as awesome has come in my mailbox this week.
