In My Mailbox (62) 8.21.11

In My Mailbox (IMM) is a weekly meme hosted by Kristi @ The Story Siren. Every week I’ll post what books I’ve received either by mailbox/library/store.

From the library:

The Island (audio)

by Elin Hilderbrand

I love Elin Hilderbrand’s books and somehow I missed this one when I first started reading her.

What’s in your mailbox?

    @ Julie and Carrie: Oh my goodness – her books are soooo good. They are all set on Nantucket and are the absolute perfect beach reads…I don't even know which one is my favorite as I have thoroughly enjoyed them all!!!

    It looks very good, but I don't think I've heard of it before. Hope you enjoy it! 🙂

    @Rebecca It really is good so far…I love that it deals with two sets of sisters, since I have 2 sisters! Plus I love reading about Nantucket.

    I confuse Elin Hildebrand with the author of Seabiscuit, Laura Hillenbrand. See the similarity. Anyway, I just got a copy of Silver Girl, my first Elin Hildebrand book. I hear she's a terrific choice for an "escape from it all" kind of read. I'm looking forward to reading your review of The Island!
