Library Loot: September 5 to 11


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!

It's Library Loot time! This week is quite controlled in terms of loot,but I already know that next week is going to be a monster! One of the interlibrary loans looks huge so I am not quite sure how long it will take to read but I will figure it out!

Here's what I got this week:




Goodbye for Now: a novel by Laurie Frankel - I wish I could remember why I added this to my library request list but I have no idea now! Maybe it was Booking Mama's review. Even if it wasn't the cover would have caught my attention.

Quiet: the power of introverts in a world that can't stop talking by Susan Cain - I think I first heard of this book when the author was interviewed on NPR a couple of months ago. It has taken quite a long time to get to me since I first requested it, but that's okay.



Beside a Burning Sea by John Shors - I have been wanting to try John Shors for the longest time. This is the only one of his books that my library has though.

Utterly Charming by Kristine Grayson - I think I saw the latest book in this series on Netgalley but then realised that it wasn't the first book so I had to go back to the beginning. Pretty sure this is a fairy tale retelling romance!

What loot did you get this week? Add your link to Mr Linky below:

  2. I always love it when I forget which book I requested and then suddenly discover a book I haven't been thinking about has arrived at the library for me. It's like a little present from past me to future me.

    This week I'm reading almost all history stuff.

  4. It's been ages since I've posted library loot! Feels good to be back. :)

    Utterly Charming sounds utterly adorable. I'm a fan of fairy-tale retellings myself.

  8. My library has the audiobook version of Quiet, I'll have to see what you think about it as I'm still undecided about picking it up.
