It's been a little while since I have been able to do a Library Loot post, so I thought I would do a catch up, and then will be able to keep on top of things again. In the last couple of Library Loot posts I did mention that I had reached my maximum number of books out, so I have been being a bit careful about not just requesting everything that just catches my eye like I normally do. Now I am back down to ONLY 47 books out, I will be able to be a little freer with my requests again!
The books I have borrowed in the last couple of weeks are:
Legacy by Lois McMaster Bujold - I really enjoyed the first book in this series and I am looking forward to reacquainting myself with Dag and Fawn.
Fishing for Stars by Bryce Courtney - I started reading this book earlier this year because it is the sequel to The Persimmon Tree which I really enjoyed. I ended up having to take this back to the library unfinished because I couldn't extend it.
Moonlight and Vines by Charles de Lint - My library is missing lots of the Newford books so I am just borrowing whichever ones they do have.
Calamity Jayne Rides Again by Kathleen Bacus - The first book was a fun read. I don't know that I would spend money on them, but I am happy to borrow as many as the library has.
The Likeness by Tana French - I really liked In the Woods, and until I actually picked this up from the library I didn't realise that The Likeness features one of the same characters. I am looking forward to reading this.
The Iron Hand of Mars by Lindsey Davis - next book in the Marcus Didius Falco mystery series set in ancient Rome.
The Sweet Far Thing by Libba Bray - I read the first two books in this series a couple of years ago and really enjoyed them. Ever since this book came out last year I have been waiting very impatiently to get hold of this book but it seemed to take forever for it to come in to the library.
I just wanted to quickly also say a special Thank You to Desert Rose Booklogue who awarded me with the Literary Blogger Award while I was MIA!
Congrats on your award!
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll like The Likness. I loved it too. Definitely looking forward to her next book.
Legacy and The Likeness look like really great reads!
ReplyDeleteI so need to read the Likeness!!!! Congrats on the cool award!!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading a book by Bryce Courtney next month (The Power of One). And I love de Lint! I need to read the next two in the Bray series; I enjoyed the first one. :)
ReplyDeleteYay for Libba Bray! I am glad you are finally going to be able to read the third book!
