Library Loot



A meme to encourage bloggers to share all the wonderful loot they bring home from the library.

Here is my loot for the week;


The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins ..........for an August readalong.
We Need to Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver.........I put this one on hold after reading two reviews on the same day which definitely made me feel this was one to read.


Angels' Blood by Nalini Singh
The Wives of Henry Oades by Johanna Moran

I brought these two home simply because they both have a New Zealand connection. I know part of The Wives of Henry Oades is set in early NZ but the Nalini Singh was a real surprise. I saw it sitting on the shelf in the NZ authors section and thought it must be in the wrong section which it wasn't. I've seen her books around a lot and read reviews but had no idea she belonged in this part of the world. So although I don't really think it will be quite my thing I'll give it a try.

Hope you have some great loot this week!
