Welcome to Malibox Monday's home for the month of May!
For those of you not familiar with it,
Mailbox Monday is a gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week and explore great book blogs. Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.
It was started by Marcia of the Printed Page (now A Girl and Her Books) and is now being hosted monthly by different bloggers. Go here to find the schedule. But first, be sure to leave a link to your MM post below using the handy-dandy Mister Linky at the bottom of this post.
This is the end of the road for me. I had a great time hosting. For the month of June you will find Mailbox Monday at The Bluestocking Guide. ______________________________This week I wanted to share with you some books I got from audible.com. I have only listened to a few books on tape before so I am still a bit of a newbie. There was a get two books free for trying it out that I just couldn't pass up. These are a couple books I have wanted to read for awhile so I am excited to get listening.Water for Elephants by Sara GruenOutlander by Diana Gabaldon

Hi Mari!!! Happy Memorial Day!

Outlander is a fantastic audiobook (if it is the unabridged read by Davinia Porter)!! You will be hooked on the series.
ReplyDeleteSorry! I will get it fixed as soon as I can. Let me get the baby to sleep and then I will run over to starbucks for their Internet. At the parents house which has none. Sorry all.
ReplyDeleteAm sure you will love those audio books. I am totally hooked on listening to audiobooks in my car to and from work!
ReplyDeleteHere's what I got in my mailbox this week: http://www.bookloverbookreviews.com/2011/05/mailbox-monday-giving-new-life-to-pre-loved-books-in-may.html
TWO books that I USED to have, but now don't. I actually had the first 5 copies (in hardback) of the Outlander series, and loaned them out ... they never came back. Water for Elephants - loaned to my middle bebe girl before I got a chance to read it - also now lost (I already told her she can never borrow another book from me that I haven't already read). I DO have Outlander on Kindle, though. It would actually be a great listen, depending on the narrator. Thanks for hosting this month, and enjoy the new "listens"!
ReplyDeleteI have a copy of Outlander that I've been meaning to read for about 10 years now! Terrible, I know, but it's sooo big. Audio may be the answer. I've been enjoying a lot more audio books this year.
ReplyDeleteI heard so much about Water for Elephants. Enjoy your books and thanks for being such a great hostess!
ReplyDeleteWater for Elephants is fabulous in print - I hope it's just as good on audio.
ReplyDeleteI love audiobooks. They keep me motivated to walk everyday! Outlander is one of my favorite books of all time. I hear the audio version with Divina Porter is wonderful. Thanks for hosting this month!
ReplyDeleteI've heard wonderful things about Water for Elephants. I'm sure you will enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting MM this month!
Happy Memorial Day!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting this month and doing an exceptional job!!
Both books look intersting. Enjoy!!
I loved Outlander, hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteWater for Elephants is a great book - enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteYou got two GREAT books - one I have read and one I want to read - enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Water for Elephants, but I loved Outlander! I reread the entire series every couple of years. The only other books I do that with are the Harry Potter books. :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard great things about Water for Elephants (and I own a copy) but I haven't managed to read it yet. Hope you enjoy listening to them both!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got some great books...Hope you had a great holiday.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I got water for elephants a couple of weeks ago, and I'm really excited to read it! Hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYikes I totally forgot to put my linky! Gosh my old age is kicking in ;)
ReplyDeleteYOU ARE SO GOING TO LOVE LOVE Jamie... Outlander Jamie.... sighs in a big way for this incredible man.....
I read the Sara Gruen and liked it. hope you enjoy your books!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the wonderful world of audio books--I started listening about 5 years ago on my commute when I just couldn't listen to any more news, and I love them. Able to get enjoy so many more books this way.
ReplyDeleteI loved Water for Elephants, and I'm a big Outlander fan. Enjoy your riches!
Oh - I love audios and Audibles... I have had an Audible subscription for several years now and I get two books a month. :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy these. I really liked the Outlander series.
I have Water for Elephants right here next to me, waiting for me to pick it up! And Outlander I still have not finished! UGH! Someday...
ReplyDeleteI love audio books. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Happy reading!
I have not gotten the hang of audiobooks. I can listen to them if I follow along (I know that's weird). Hopefully one of these days I'll get the hang of them. These look like they would be great ones to listen to. I hope you enjoy them both.
