Mailbox Monday, September 7, 2009

Mailbox Monday is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page. "Mailbox Monday is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week (checked out library books don’t count, eBooks & audio books do). Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists." ~Marcia







I know this seems like a lot of books, but remember, I haven't had a Mailbox Monday post in a couple of weeks. I actually have curtailed my purchases and my requests for ARCs for now. However, I do have quite a few I am very anxious to read.

I was so surprised they had a Field Guide for Knitting...how awesome is that?

I knit quite a bit, but I just had to have this one.



My apologies if I missed listing one or two, but I will go through my list on LT this week to check.

Happy Labor Day to everyone! This poster is from US History.org and I post it to you in celebration of Labor Day.
