Library Loot

Eva over at The Striped Armchair has come up with a great idea; a weekly post of your library finds! Since I am always finding tempting items I thought this would be a good one to participate in. I often bring books home, flip through them and end up not even reading them, but the browsing is half the fun!

This week's haul:



The Post Office Girl / Stefan Zweig



A Thousand Shades of Blue / Robin Stevenson (YA)




Beatitudes / Hermenegilde Chiasson (poetry)


Reading by Lightning / Joan Thomas

Browsing is half the fun! I've heard good things about The Post Office Girl, but of course I can't remember where. lol

What great finds. These are all new to me so I'll have to do a little investigating but I love the titles of A thousand Shades of Blue and Reading by Lightning. Can't wait to hear your comments on them. I love this new weekly feature.

A thousand shades of Blue has a lovely name and a beautiful cover. I hope you enjoy all the books.

Everyone has such good library hauls. I can never find anything that I want at mine... Not fair! lol I am determined to use the library more this year, but I am not sure how well that will turn out.

I'm reading another book at the moment by Stefan Zweig (excellent so far), and I also have the Post Office Girl to read as well!

Melanie said...

Eva & Danielle - I am really enjoying The Post Office Girl! What other Zweig are you reading?

Sandra & violetcrush - I love the cover and title of A Thousand Shades of Blue, can't wait to read it.

Kailana - hope you are lucky finding something you want in future! Don't forget interlibrary loan :)
