Morning Meanderings… Presenting The Books From BEA
Anybody else wondering if I write reviews any more?
Ok… Just checking…
Seriously though, it feels like I have not written a book review in weeks. Probably – because that is true. I did not get any written during BEA and since I have been back I have been in a haze of keeping up on the house, the weather (oh rain… GO AWAY!) working, catching up with friends…
All good things, and I am reading – but I sit down at night to write a post and my eyes glaze over and I wind up playing a couple rounds of Scrabble on Facebook and going to bed. 
And now today – I am going to talk about the books from BEA because I should… and I want to. And tomorrow, if the big Blogiversary celebration here and seriously – come – you are invited and it really is a big deal. I have all sorts of giveaways (some will be BEA related!) and it is always a good time. Here is a link to last years party…. SO MUCH FUN! 
OH and bring a guest this year – for sure (More on that tomorrow morning)
Anyway – back to the books. Here is my BEA haul – thank you to my friend Heidi and her awesome daughter Camryn who came over and dug through boxes with me.
There it is…. and I have some major organizing to do in the book room…. seriously. Hope your day is wonderful! And really hope to see you tomorrow…. it is going to be so MUCH FUN!

I can’t imagine you will ever have time to emerge and write reviews again!! They all look fabulous! Interesting that there’s a type on the spine of Beach Colors…I’ve never noticed that on an ARC/ARE before.
I have the first Cake Doctor book–I don’t bake very often, but it’s a lot of fun to have.
Enjoy all your new reads!
LOL…. oh it will be done
I didnt catch that typo until you mentioned it…LOL 
I am interested in the cake doctor book – I do not bake much but if I do I like it to seem impressive… ha ha!
That will keep you busy for a while!
I think so… I made a call to a friend of ours this morning asking him to stop by and give me a bid on shelves for the book room…. it is time to get organized!
Wow, looks like over 100 books! When will you read them all?
I’ve read some of them and want to read others… It’s a great pile. Enjoy.
And I’m looking very much forward to your party tomorrow (also my son’s 15th birthday). I think I was present at both your bloggoversary parties so far, so I will make an appearance again tomorrow.
I will break them down into categories…. try to get in posts to work in with their release dates, if I can not read it by that time I can at least chat about it.
Nice – I am so glad you are coming to the party! It is one of my favorite posts of the year!
Jealous all over again of your copy of The Twelve!
I have already started that one… actually started it while at BEA…and when I say while at BEA… I mean, AT IT. Like downstairs during a lunch break in a corner book open, nose in it…
I guess it’s good, huh? I suppose I’ll buy my copy in October since I missed out on the ARCs at BEA and I own a copy of The Passage anyway. Don’t tell me what happens!
Wow!!!! Great haul…I see several books there that I’m wanting, and some I’m actually getting (preordered), like One Breath Away…and I just got Safe Within.
Some I’ve read, too, like Then Came You, etc.
Enjoy!!!
Then Came You came in a swag bag – I have that one too… this copy will probably show up on my Blogiversary give away
I see quite a few there I really want to read! Origin and The Fault in our Stars.
Me too Laura – I can not wait to dig in… the weekend should be fairly quiet (fingers crossed….)
Sheila,
This is a lot of books-what is the title of the book with Paris Review-I cannot read everything on the spine. Tigers in Red Weather sounds interesting.
My pics were not the best this morning Esme… lets see… the title you are referring to is: Object Lessons: The Paris Review
I’m curious about Albert & Adelaide. I picked up a copy because the cover/premise looked so amusing. It seems like one of those books that I’ll either love or hate.
I feel the same way Grace, the cover had me curious… let me know when you are reading.. maybe we could read it together. DO a duel review.
That would be fun!
HOLY COW!!! You made a great haul! Once again, the little green monster appears in my heart… LOL just kidding. I will be out of town tomorrow—so have a fun blogiversary!
Oh Debbie – if you can pop in any time tomorrow and say hi that would be great!
I have visions of book shelves going on right now in my head…. I have a method to my madness… I really do!
Wow, girl! Thats A LOT of awesome books! I am so jealous right now.
Glad you had a great time at BEA!
Stop by tomorrow – there will be some giveaways…
LOVE BEA!!!
WOW!! What a haul! I see so many I’ve been wanting to read. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on them…and yeah, I know it may be a while before you get to them. I seriously hope BEA comes to Tampa or Orlando soon!
Does BEA ever move or do they tend to stay in NYC?
I think through 2015 it is in New York… if I recall that right….
Ooooo does that mean there is the possibility of movement? Brilliant!
Looks like it is in New York through 2015.
I’ve been having a hard time with reviews lately too, and even deciding on a book to read. But if I had your stack of BEA beauties I’d really be struck by indecision! And audiobooks too- so cool! Glad you had an amazing time at BEA.
Looking forward to the big bash tomorrow!
I have been reading – not reviewing…. I have about 10 to write up. Hope to work on that over the next few days and be back up and running 100% by Monday
Hey, it’s YOUR blog! Review when you want (or when you must) and write whatever you want
Fabulous books! I have Beach Colors on my review stack. Did you notice the typo on the spine?
I will get there Mary… just a little slow now
I didnt notice the typo until someone mentioned it on this post. Of all the places to have a typo…. The Spine!!!!! (I may have to keep this book forever just because of that 
I am salivating over your copy of The Twelve!!!
I am too a little bit Jo Jo!
So how many audios did you snag? 4?
yup….4. Not a lot of audio there but I found a few so that was fun!
Awesome! Absolutely!
BTW don’t feel bad. You don’t have to write reviews to hold our attention. Book chat in general keeps me happy.
LOL thanks! I do have plenty of “book chat” in me….
I love looking at other people’s BEA hauls because it proves just how wide the range of books there really was. I think I got… 5? of the same ones you did. And most of those were from Blogger Con and the Random House breakfast.
Isnt that funny? Everyone’s BEA experience is so different – books and adventures!
You will be busy for a while.
I haven’t gotten mine yet, but looking forward to their arrival.
I have a plan Elizabeth…. I hope it works…. LOL
Tell us what it is so I can use the plan too.
When I look at what other people got at BEA, I wonder if I was at the same show they were. Enjoy!
That is so true Kathy! I see books other people got and I think “How did I miss that?” On the other hand…. thank God I did miss it… I brought more home than I planned on….
Wow, that’s a ton of books!
I know… I have work to do
Holy cow ((eyes bugging out)) that’s a lot of books! I just finished Wife 22 from your second pic. It was humorous and fun and kind of what I needed at the time. Enjoy!
I am late on reading that one Angie… I was supposed to finish it last week… I need to get on that.
Love it! I’ve just started to sort through my books.
That’s half the fun Steph!
Wow! That’s a tons! I would love to see a list of these, with the titles and authors.
Pretty please? 
That is my weekend task –
You can see a few that fit my Blogiversary giveaway as well…. I had some duplicates.
What a beautiful pile to look upon and drool about!
I called a friend of our this morning who owns a construction company – he is stopping by next week to talk shelves with me
Sheila, I’m concerned you didn’t get enough.
How fun!!!
LOL…. uh, yeah…..
Wow! Good luck finding space for them all
