Library Loot: January 16 to 22


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! It's hot here! I never feel like I have the right to moan when it is cold because our version of cold is not very cold at all compared to what some parts of the world experience and we certainly never end up with blizzards and the like, but we are up there in terms of heat so I will say it again.... it's hot here! I do think I am justified though. I am in Adelaide at the moment, rather than in Melbourne where I live, and it is going to be a very warm 42 degrees Celsius (that is 108 Fahrenheit). It's still good reading weather though, as long as the aircon is on and you don't have to go outside.

Here's my loot for this week:




 The Little Russian by Susan Sherman - Nicole from Linus' Blanket was telling me about this book and it sounded so good!

The Hypnotist's Love Story by Liane Moriarty - I've read the other two Moriarty sisters and now it is time to try the other Moriarty sister.


Night Music by Jojo Moyes - I have loved Jojo Moyes recent books. I was looking for a new audiobook to listen to and noticed that my library has this one so I will be giving another one of her earlier books a go!


The Surrender of Miss Fairbourne by Madeline Hunter - I generally enjoy Madeline Hunter's books. This is the first book in a new series.

A Lady by Midnight by Tessa Dare - I do enjoy Tessa Dare's books and I am sure this will be no exception.

Head over to Clare's blog to share your Library Loot link!

  3. I need to start reading Hunter again. She used to be a favourite but then life happened and I haven't read one in quite a while...

  5. I so want to read The Little Russian, and think that I am going to buy it on my Kindle this evening. It's such a great premise, and I have heard nothing but good things about it so far. I am so glad that you got it, Marg! I can't wait to hear what you think!

  6. That's way HOT. Melting pavement kind of hot! Is it humid, too or just dry heat?

    All of your loot looks great, although naturally I'm most curious about the romances. I need to catch up on Tessa Dare's latest series. I've only read the prequel novella!

  10. I didn't realize that JoJo Moyes has written so many books. Somewhere else I saw that she has 9. I loved her last book, so I will be giving some others a try.

    1. I've read four now and liked them all. The last three have all been excellent though.
