Sweet additions! Love the little doodles Joe did for you. How is the Locke and Key game? I'm a bit of a board game geek myself.

To be honest I have not played it yet. At some point I will but not yet.

Very nice stuff. I was not aware of the LK game. I think I might have to check it out.

Received my Grab Bag several days back. Two of the four were duplicates which did not surprise me, they will be taken to Powell's on soon for trade, and the other two were books I had come close to ordering on multiple occasions:

I will not bother showing the duplicates as I believe I have shown them before. They are I Am Not Sam and Floating Dragon.
The two new additions are:
Femme and Kinsmen:

I also received my shipment of the next three Signature Series earlier this week. These continue to be some of my favorite books.

First up is Dueling Minds:

I read mthe ARC of this last fall and had actually forgotten how much I enjoyed it until I looked at the signed limited.

The next up is Homestead:



I have the ARC of this one but I have not yet read it.

And Tyler's Third Act:

I have stated before that I have a wonderfully understanding wife who has accepted my book obsession, I mean collection. Our home has shelves in the rooms with vaulted ceilings that are about 8 feet off the ground. My wife a while back resigned to the fact that the books shelves were filling up and more books were coming suggested that I put book shelves on the 'Art Shelves'. Great idea! I have added the first set of shelves. So eight feet off the ground in our bedroom are many of my King books:

This is ten and a half feet of books!
