Tamra You absolutely should have Brown Girl Dreaming. 💜 5y
Tameeka @Tamra That‘s what the bookseller told me. Glad it‘s confirmed ☺️ 5y

Into The Water | Paula Hawkins
post image

(Both) my #botm boxes have shipped AND I got Into the Water as a free gift, which was a total surprise! I think they gifted it to me bc I renewed my second account today? But I didn't enter any promotional code so not entirely sure...

Anyone else get this fun surprise??

Really looking forward to seeing how everyone likes The Love Interest as well... It was the only May book I just couldn't get behind.

L_auren I agree-- I kind of laughed when I read the description. I'm still going to pick it up (I actually have access to the electronic ARC) so maybe I can report back to the unimpressed masses!! 7y
Cinfhen Yes, I got an email if I reinstated my BOTM, Into the Water was free...and they were referring to my third account that I did not renew last month😬🙄😳 7y
emilyhaldi @L_auren Lol, I think I rolled my eyes 😂 but I've been surprised by BOTM choices before so who knows! Can't wait to hear your feedback 😄 7y

emilyhaldi @Cinfhen wow! I don't think I realized you had a THIRD account! That's true dedication 😂 🙌🏻 7y
L_auren @emilyhaldi It's the selection from the "You Be the Judge" contest ? 7y
Cinfhen I blame @Reviewsbylola for my third account....she convinced me I needed Marlena and I had the $1 offer so I figured why not? My second account was finishing up at that point....but now I'm back to two accounts 7y
Reviewsbylola lol I'm always to blame! @Cinfhen I actually managed to talk myself off the ledge with a third account! 7y
Cinfhen I skipped that YA too, and now that I hear it's the "guest" judges choice, I'm having #zeroregrets @L_auren 7y
Reviewsbylola I better get a free book when I renew my second account next month!! 7y
L_auren @Cinfhen 🙌🏻 🙌🏻I'm going to take this one for the team... I'll be in touch 😼 7y
Cityofamber Yep I hadn't renewed for April (but planned to resubscribe when there were books I wanted 😂) so when I reinstated my account I got the free book! 😊 7y
Hazel0303 I'm having a hard time deciding this month. It looks like a lot of interesting reads, but some of the book blogs I follow gave some subpar reactions and I'm about to have a baby later this month. So I'm thinking I might put these on my library list. I just feel so bad - I've skipped the last three months of #botm. 7y
emilyhaldi @Amberboston1 good timing!! 👍🏻 7y
emilyhaldi @Hazel0303 no need to feel bad! You can always go back and add any of these books to a future box if you see reviews and decide you want to read. Or library like you said! Better to wait and save up for something youre really excited to read 😁 and congrats on the upcoming baby!! ❤ 7y
Hazel0303 Thanks @emilyhaldi ! I was a botm brand ambassador last year (I see some people still are, but they told me they ended the program) so for one glorious month I got all the books for free and just had to plug the crap out of them after I read them. This was a month I wished I was still an ambassador bc I would have definitely read them all just didn't want to buy them all haha. 7y

Le Morte D'Arthur | Thomas Mallory
post image

As a newly single parent about 13 yrs ago, I had to downsize my library of about 1000 books down to 300 ish to fit us into our new townhouse. One of the books I got rid of that I always regretted was a beautiful edition of Le Morte d'Arthur. This version is very close, with the same beautiful scripting and illustrations. I'm so happy to have a copy of it in my house again.

Cinfhen So glad you were able to find the book 💕#zeroregrets 7y
Donna_sBookMinute Yes. Some books have a way of haunting us once out of our possession. Glad you found another copy. 7y
Nonaroo I'm glad you found such a beautiful copy. I read this last year for a wonderful class on Arthurian legend. It was probably one of my favorite classes and the professor was fantastic. 7y
