LOOKIE AT WHAT WAS IN MY MAILBOX!
I was extremely excited to find these 5 wonderful books in my mailbox this week. A quick run-down first, then I'll show each book separately and give a synopsis for each. Ok, we have: Bag of Bones by Stephen King, Lisey's Story by Stephen King, Bound by Night by Amanda Ashley, Bound by Blood by Amanda Ashley, and Succulent Prey by Wrath James White.
BAG OF BONES: STEPHEN KING
SYNOPSIS: Four years after the
sudden death of his wife, forty-year-old bestselling novelist Mike
Noonan is still grieving. Unable to write, and plagued by vivid
nightmares set at the western Maine summerhouse he calls Sara Laughs,
Mike reluctantly returns to the lakeside getaway. There, he finds his
beloved Yankee town held in the grip of a powerful millionaire, Max
Devore, whose vindictive purpose is to take his three-year-old
granddaughter, Kyra, away from her widowed young mother, Mattie. As Mike
is drawn into Mattie and Kyra's struggle, as he falls in love with both
of them, he is also drawn into the mystery of Sara Laughs, now the site
of ghostly visitations and escalating terrors. What are the forces that
have been unleashed here -- and what do they want of Mike Noonan?

LISEY'S STORY: STEPHEN KING (*This book is so pretty without the dust jacket!)
SYNOPSIS: Lisey Debusher Landon
lost her husband, Scott, two years ago, after a twenty-five-year
marriage of the most profound and sometimes frightening intimacy. Scott
was an award-winning, bestselling novelist and a very complicated man.
Early in their relationship, before they married, Lisey had to learn
from him about books and blood and bools. Later, she understood that
there was a place Scott went -- a place that both terrified and healed
him, that could eat him alive or give him the ideas he needed in order
to live. Now it's Lisey's turn to face Scott's demons, Lisey's turn to
go to Boo'ya Moon. What begins as a widow's effort to sort through the
papers of her celebrated husband becomes a nearly fatal journey into the
darkness he inhabited. Perhaps King's most personal and powerful novel,
"Lisey's Story" is about the wellsprings of creativity, the temptations
of madness, and the secret language of love.
