In My Mailbox

First off... I just want to say... that while I have hit 75K on my NaNo book this week, I'm still not done. My first drafts are always long, though, and this seems to be no exception though I am in the final stretch. I am seriously loving this one!

Apart from that, I had an unexpectedly good week in books! Good for me, annoying for the dog.

    Very much jealous of your weekly haul... ;)
    I am definitely going to have to check out a bunch of those books... (so thanks for introducing them to me!)

    You had a great week! I just found out about Simon & Schuster's Galley Grab program this week. But I grabbed some different books than you. Congrats on the progress of your book. I am amazed. I don't think I even know 75,000 words and certainly couldn't arrange them into a coherent story. Happy reading!

    Wow, great books this week! Wither and Unearthly sound really good and I can't wait to read them. I'm looking forward to your review of Future Imperfect. :-)

    Nice haul! Unearthly was a rather good read! A nice surprise ending, although I had an inkling of some of the facts! Can't wait to see what you think!

    My IMM will be up tomorrow if you feel like stopping by!

    Lots and lots of great books. I love the sad, "please give me a cookie" beagle face. I just tried out the Galley Grab program, but pdfs look horrible on my Sony PRS 505. I really want to read Chocker!

    Good job on your NaNo goal! Great books this week. I just applied for the S&S galley program, so I'm hoping to hear back from them soon! I got Wither last week, so excited to read it. Cryer's Cross was amazing and so creepy! Happy reading!
