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!
ReplyDeleteReading the first part of your post really made me laugh - I could have written it myself.
ReplyDeleteYou 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!
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff! I always go overboard at the library too. It's hard to resist free books.
ReplyDeleteNice loot! I've been wanting to try Patricia Briggs. Here's my Loot.
ReplyDeleteI 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!
ReplyDeleteI love that you're just as out of control as I am!!! Enjoy and I wish you luck getting through all of them!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Good luck with that stack!
ReplyDeleteLOL--I'm sure it's not so bad if you DON'T count them. :)
ReplyDeleteThe 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 :)
