I won The Blue Enchantress. Very excited! Still waiting on my July book as well, so I'm doubly excited!

I've won Resistance by Agnes Humbert. Looks exciting!

I'm also going to have to put Chris Adrian's short story collection on my to buy list.

Ooh, I won one from August (though I'm still waiting for July's to arrive....)-- Menu for Romance by Kaye Dacus. Can't wait to read it, it sounds like it should be a nice one to read.

Enjoy,

I'm getting The Jade Cat--fascinating to me because part of my family is Danish and part is Jewish.

Hey! I got Section 8. I can see why though - it seems to fall into the type of books I'm kind of hooked on these days.

After a over a year with nothing, I snagged The Wife's Tale by Lori Lansens (touchstones not working). Pretty exciting just because it's been so long.

Wow, VivienneR, that is great news. Congrats! I am on a months long drought myself, so you give me hope.

I'm getting The Book of Samuel: A Novel by Erik Raschke The touchstone thing isn't listing the correct book for some reason. Can't wait to read it!!

I got Day of the Assassins: A Jack Christie Novel. It's a YA historical fiction adventure story about WWI. I'm a children's librarian, so I usually request the Juvenile or YA titles. It's the first in a series...can't wait to get it!

I still have not had a note either way. Although since the notices started going out eight hours ago I guess my odds are not very good...

Just found out I am getting a copy of Grace Hammer: A Novel of the Victorian Underworld by Sara Stockbridge. I love historical fiction, I can't wait to read it.

VictoriaPL - I have received the comment letting me know I didn't win - but I haven't received notice of the comment (either email or at the top of the page when I'm logged in). Just stating, in case the same bug is happening to you.

VivienneR, I got The Wife's Tale too, my first ER book! Looking forward to reading it!

>26 cindysprocket: Oh, lucky you! I just finished the first in the series.

Nothing for me this month. I've been pretty lucky so I'm not complaining.

Enjoy everybody!!

Nothing for me. I did get the email, and the profile comment, but no yellow banner saying I had a message.

Nothing for me... as usual :(

When I do get one finally it will be a happy day!

Nothing for me ..Abby only writes to tell me I didn't recieve anything :(

Nothing for me either, which I guess is a good thing because I have about four books that I am trying to read at the moment.

32littlebookworm
Sep 3, 2009, 8:30 am

Nothing here either, but I have tons of other books to be read!

33rainbowdarling

Unfinished Desires by Gail Godwin!

Sep 3, 2009, 10:15 am

I never received the yellow comment notification, but unfortunately there is a profile note telling me no book this month. I really wanted the new Lansens book the wife's tale. I thought I was a perfect match, I guess Abby and the almightly didn't think so.

36DevourerOfBooks
Sep 3, 2009, 11:17 am

Nothing for me, but I'm a bit relieved. Despite there being some books I would have really liked to read, the last thing I probably need right now is ANOTHER book that needs to be read and reviewed in a timely matter.

37TheCrowdedLeaf
Sep 3, 2009, 11:35 am

Nothing for me either, but I can't wait to see what people think of Alice I Have Been, I really wanted that one. :)

38tardis
Sep 3, 2009, 11:35 am

nothing for me, but as I'm still waiting for both my July 2008 and July 2009 books, I'm not sad.

Excited to see what is available for September!

I won my first ER book!!

Definitely something weird going on with the notification system. I never received a notice either way, but then when I looked at my list of ER books awarded and reviewed, No Time to Wave Goodbye by Jacqueline Mitchard had been added. I loved Deep End of the Ocean, so I'm thrilled!

I got Day of the Assassins as well and am really looking forward to reading it. Showed my husband the book's website and now he's threatening to snag it first when it arrives. LOL Ha! We'll just see about that!

I'm getting Montana Rose this month. A little history, a little Montana, a little romance – sounds like it's right up my alley!

I also won Seahorses are real and it's my first ER book, too, LittleWish! I have a daughter your age so comparing our impressions should be interesting. Hope it's a good book! I wonder how long it will take to get the it?
