Library Loot: December 14 to 20


Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire from The Captive Reader and Marg from The Adventures of an Intrepid Reader that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. If you’d like to participate, just write up your post-feel free to steal the button-and link it using the Mr. Linky any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries!

Phew! I am not sure why, but that no requests thing I did in November doesn't actually seem to have made much different to the number of new book I have to pick up at the library. It is always the way isn't it though  - all the requests come in at once.

Here's my loot for this week:


One Dance with a Duke by Tessa Dare - Time to start Tessa Dare's second trilogy. I really enjoyed her debut trilogy and the reviews on her latest series are good too!


The Great Gatsby by F Scott Fitzgerald - This is a reread for me, and is my January book club book.


The Winding Ways Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini - It's been an eternity since I read one of the books in this series. I have heard good things about some of the later books in the series so it  is time to get back to it.


The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern - Lots of hype around this book. I had requested as soon as this book was added to the catalogue but it seems to have taken an awful long time to get to me.


Destined by PC and Kristen Cast - Why do I keep reading this series? I really don't know.


Grace and Glory by Sophie Laguna - the next book in the Grace series of Our Australian Girl books.

  9. I see so many people say that they have no idea why they are still reading the House of Night series, but yet a new book comes out and they get a copy... I have only read book 1 and just don't feel a pressing desire to read on...
