IN THE SANCTUARY OF OUTCASTS (ARC) by Neil White - This book was sent to me (and recommended) by Kate from Folio Lit.

I hope you enjoy The Girl Who Stopped Swimming!!! I always get nervous when people go by my recommendations. ;)
Wow...what a great week! The Girl Who Stopped Swimming wasn't my favorite of Jackson's three novels (it's a bit of a departure for her), but I did enjoy it. Looking forward to your thoughts!
You had a great week. I got 2 of the same books. I agree with Jill's assessment of The Girl Who Stopped Swimming.
Nice haul! Sadly my mailbox was silent, but I think my TBR pile needed a week off anyway =)
Great list of books. Blue Boy sounds intersting, I'll need to fins myself a copy. I also got a copy of The Middle Place and can't wait to start reading.
I'm waiting on Old World Mother New World Daughter too. Maybe today?!
Wow...you had an amazing week! Enjoy all of your new books.
I am participating in the Blog Talk show for The Middle Place too but haven't received the book yet.
Wow, what a great week in books! I'll be mailing out your package tomorrow. Today is a holiday here.
Wow! Good thing they didn't all come in one day or they would've come in a truckload! LOL.
Great list of books. I read The Girl Who Stopped Swimming a week or two ago and liked it. Hope you do too. I'm doing the BCG The Middle Place as well. Reading it now and enjoying it.
You have a great list of books. I've read other Jackson books, but not this one. I do have it in audio, I just haven't gotten to it yet.
Sanctuary of Outcasts looks fascinating and I am looking forward to review that one myself.
great haul of books.
Wow - You had an excellent week! Lots of variety too!
You're going to need to buy a house for the sole purpose of housing all your books if you weeks keep up like this!
You always have a great list of books! Happy reading!
