Library Gleanings


As I am finally back at work this week, I was able to gather up a few more goodies from the new arrivals. Some of them are ones I've been waiting for and some I found via serendipity. So I'll play along with Eva and Alessandra's Library Loot finding this week.

Here are the ones I carted home with me:
(I've already started three...)

These all sound fantastic. And what an appealing cover on the Elinor Lipman book! I've only read one of her books and I'd like to read more.

Sarah Waters rocks my world!

Kate - I've only read one Lipman so far as well, and this one looked good!

Wandering Coyote - I took this out partly on the strength of your review! I haven't read her other work yet.

Fingersmith was awesome.

Nice haul! Several of those I want to read, but my library does not have!

I really enjoyed WONDROUS STRANGE! Lesley and I are doing three events together this summer so I'm glad that I can honestly say I loved her book!

Melanie said...

Kailana - argh! Try Interlibrary Loan -- if you ever run out of books... ;)

RJ Anderson - hurrah! any events near home?

I got Wondrous Strange this week! And Friday's Child is my favourite Heyer (so far). :D I need to read more Sarah Waters (I read Tipping the Velvet and LOVED it).
