    I'm looking forward to seeing Lovely Bones when it comes out. I haven't had a chance to read The Way Home yet.

    If this is your mailbox, my son will be eternally jealous (as my husband is not a Packer fan, sonny boy will have to be an adult before he can have his own!).

    Enjoy your new books!

    Wow! I received a George Pelecanos book, too. Mine was "The Turnaround," from a contest.

    "The Lovely Bones" is a great read!

    The Way Home is on my TBR shelf, and I have previously read The Lovely Bones, which I really enjoyed.

    Enjoy your books!

    I read The Lovely Bones when it first came out and thought it was so-so but with the movie coming out I feel as if I need to look at it again.

    I really enjoyed The Way Home. It was my first book by this author but it won't be my last. I hope you enjoy it too.

    Nice looking mailbox. I enjoyed The Lovely Bones, but I did have to work to get through the beginning. After that I was absorbed in the book.
