What's New On My Bookshelf
A great big thanks to Emily Bestler Books, an imprint of Atria Books at Simon & Schuster, for sending me this beautiful hardcover edition of Bellman & Black by Diane Setterfield - I can't wait to start reading it!
Sisters In Love and Six Moon Summer were both Amazon freebies that I added to my Kindle this past week. The Enchanted Life of Adam Hope was more of a splurge, which I had to get for my Kindle after hearing about it on an episode of the Books on the Nightstand podcast. Lastly, I received a copy of Northern Bites to review for an upcoming book tour.
Hope you enjoy the new books. Happy reading...
