Library Day!

It's been a few weeks since I subjected you all to my library loot. I had a hold expiring today so I HAD to go, and since I couldn't check out the hold without turning in my one late book, I had to do that too. The reason it was late? My boys ripped the cover off and I didn't want to admit I needed to pay for a book. Fortunately, the librarian took one look at it and said that she thought it was likely on it's last legs anyway and I did not have to replace it. Whew.

So, what did I get?

Whew. Seems like a lot, doesn't it? I won't likely get them all read. I tend to grab up books without really looking at them. It's free, why not?

What's new on your library shelf this week?

  2. Wow, that's a lot of loot. I really want to read one of Sarah Addison Allen's books, so I say start with Garden Spells.

  3. I agree with Kathy, because I've read all of Allen's books. They're quirky, feel-good stories, and I love them for that reason.

  9. Love some of your library loot. I have one of the healthy bread books and love it. Mine is all messy from my doughy fingers. Love the pregnancy shot. Thanks for sharing.

  10. Have been meaning to comment on this for a long time. Read Hunger Games already! It's a pretty quick read and I think you'll like it. If in six months this comes back around on your Library Loot I'm not sure we can continue being friends. :P (says with must rib poking).
