KB Book of the Day
The Moon in Deep Winter
by Lee Polevoi

$0.99
Kindle Edition published 2008-01-10
Bestseller ranking: 460964

Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

Oooooh!  Lovely items!

I am very interested in a long strand of chocolate or bronze pearls (I have black and white strands already).  I'd be interested in earrings, but not earring/necklace sets.   I love the coral roses and the red CZ's, but only the earrings.  Are the wires silver?  I can't wear any metals but silver, platinum, and white gold.  I like the Mongolian silver bracelets, but what size wrist do they fit?  (I do not have delicate bones!  hee!)  You mentioned that you can get rings.  Do they sell rings similar to those silver bracelets?  Larger sizes?  I'm just full of questions!

I'll be watching this thread.....

Hi everyone!
Ok, so the husband and I have come to an agreement for me spending days at the Auction. I get one weekend a month in which he will watch the kids so I can go! I get to go one day this weekend, since I went last weekend too, and then I can go again next month! So, keep the requests coming and I will keep a shopping list for all of you! I will also keep picking up whatever new and exciting things I find!
Thanks!

Thanks for this and have a great time. Shopping for others is pretty close to as much fun as for oneself!

So, it was kind of a hit/miss this week. They had some new stuff, but very llittle jewelery this week. I got a few neat things. The bidding was crazy and many of the usual items were going for much higher prices. I will be posting pics soon. I think I finally figured out how to make my camera focus, so now all I need it a clear day for some natural light and I should be able to get some good images. Having a bot of an off day, not to mention it's raining here, so I will try to get them up tomorrow! Just as a bit of a teaser, I did mange to get a long strand of pastel pearls, a mix of lavender, peach, and cream, with matching earrings for $5, and a sterling silver anchor for $3!!! almost everything else rand between $12-20. My big winnings were a couple of color enhanced jade necklaces. You will have to wait for the pictures, but they were $11 each. One is a beatiful pink hoop with a white gold dragon design inside. The other is a blue circle with a white gold dolphin. Both are great and usually sell for around $30-35, so I was really excited to get them!
I am off to take a nap!

This is one thread I wish would not bump until Mary Ann bumps it.   LOL. 
Everytime I see it I get all excited. 
And clearly I'm not the only one.

(And now here I gave everybody another false jolt of excitement.....)
