I hadn't realized it was so thick!

I went to get the mail, and found what was obviously a book (given the Thriftbooks.com wrapping), someone wanting money, and a letter from a child that I sponsor. After I got the mail, I continued for a half hour walk. I noted as I was holding the package with the book in it that it felt pretty thick, which surprised me a bit. Once I got it home and opened it, I saw that it was indeed a thick one--but sometimes I find that even books with lots of pages can be fast reads if they're enjoyable enough. This (The Mysterious Benedict Society) is another new series for me. While I was still on the site while ordering this book, I saw that there was a book that was a prequel to the one pictured, so I ordered it, too. I need to finish the book I'm reading, and also, since I like to read books in chronological order of the events that happen in them, I'll wait for the prequel to come before reading the one I received today. I hope that you got something you were expecting/something good in the mail in your part of myLot land!
