Library Loot, the pile grows
I've been really good lately at limiting the number of library books I have checked out for myself, but today I ran in to pick up one hold and found myself leaving with an entire bag. Here's what I've got, where would you start? (A couple of these I already had, the last third of the list or so.)

Bringing up Bebe is one that is next (or close to next) on my list, but I really liked The Dirty Life as well. There are always too many books to pick from.
ReplyDeleteJust when I was starting to be afraid that I wouldn't recognize any of these titles, I noticed In Defense of Food, which I really want to read. And The Night Circus, which I think I'll read soon. And The Name of the Star which I almost bought but then slapped myself because I'm only buying books I can read right away (in other words not).
ReplyDeleteLisa. I love you. But why check out so many books from the library at one time?
I'd start with Bringing up Bebe, partly because I know French parenting isn't as wonderful as the author makes it out to be since I lived there.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed The Night Circus!
ReplyDeleteI've read Surprised by Joy but I'm afraid I don't remember much about it. The Name of the Star is one I really want to read. My library is very slow to get YA titles, unfortunately, and they don't get a very wide variety, so I may have to order it someday. I couldn't get into Mosaic. It just wasn't what I'd hoped for in a book about Amy Grant. I wanted to know more about her life but it was all recent, at least as far as I got. I gave up and donated my copy.
ReplyDeleteOh, where to begin...so many good ones in your loot. I want to read Bringing up Bebe and The Night Circus. I look forward to your reviews of any of these. How many children's books came home in your bag?
ReplyDeleteOh what a great list! Night Circus is a must! I have also heard The Name Of The Star is fantastic!
