Library loot is where we share the treasures we find at our local libraries :) This week the Linky is at Marg's blog if you want to join in as well.
As usual, I've gone a bit overboard with checking books out from the library. I just can't seem to help myself even when I know I shouldn't. If I stayed away from the library for a month, I might (might being the keyword here) be able to make a dent in my library pile. But I can't seem to do that...in fact I happen to know that The Glass Room is sitting at the library waiting for me to pick it up as I write this. And the temptation of browsing for a few minutes while I grab my holds is usually too much. LOL! Here is what I've picked up since my last library loot post from a couple weeks back.
*EEK* I've just realized that is ten books. And I still have a bunch from my last post...oh dear. I went on a bit of a dystopian kick which is where a few of these came from. Monique and the Mango Rains is my next nonfiction pick and will be the first book I read for the Nonfiction 5 challenge. I hope. They all look so good that I'm pretty sure I don't know where to start. I'm open for suggestions ;) In other reading news, I just finished Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder and am already chomping at the bit to pick up the next book in this trilogy. So glad that I finally picked it up! I'm currently reading The Keep by Jennifer Egan which was longlisted for The Orange Prize a few years back. Looks like I better get back to reading...

That is a lot of reading! I have a few of those authors on my TBR list. Happy reading!
Reading the first part of your post really made me laugh - I could have written it myself.
You have a lovely lot of loot and i hope you manage to get them read.
Enjoy!
That'll keep you busy! Good luck getting through your pile!
Great stuff! I always go overboard at the library too. It's hard to resist free books.
Nice loot! I've been wanting to try Patricia Briggs. Here's my Loot.
I have the same problem when I go to the library or a book store--too much temptation! No matter how many books I already have, I cannot resist a few more!
I love that you're just as out of control as I am!!! Enjoy and I wish you luck getting through all of them!!
Wow! Good luck with that stack!
LOL--I'm sure it's not so bad if you DON'T count them. :)
The only one I've read is The Color of Magic and it was a lot of fun.
PS--I'm sure it's old but I love the new blog design!
I LOVED Incarceron - I'm excited to hear what you thought of it (if you get to it in time :)
