Library Loot: January 9 to 15


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!
After not visiting the library much recently I got a relatively decent sized haul this week but it's not all books! I have at least another couple of CDs on request too, but I am not sure when they will come in.

Here's what I did get:




A Lady Never Lies by Juliana Gray - Last year I read and loved Overseas by Beatriz Williams who also writes under the name Juliana Gray. I am hoping to repeat the fun reading experience I had! I have heard lots of good things about the series that this is the first book of.

The Twelve by Justin Cronin - The follow up book to the very successful The Passage.

Fall Girl by Toni Jordan - While I was away I listened to the audio book of Toni Jordan's debut novel Addition. This was her follow up book!




Some Nights by Fun - Ever since I heard the single Some Nights I have been loving Fun's music! I actually downloaded this on Itunes but I forgot to cancel the request.

Overexposed by Maroon 5 - I mainly got this album because I have had Moves Like Jagger as my ringtone for months and months and months. It is probably time to change it, but not quite yet.

  1. I really need to give Cronin another chance. I never got past page 200 of the first book.

    1. It is a book that you have to work at, but I thought it was worth the effort.

  2. I remember when everyone seemed to be reading The Passage but I haven't heard much about The Twelve. Enjoy your loot!

    1. The Passage was definitely the recipient of a lot of advance buzz!

  3. Love the new Maroon 5 album, and hope that you do too! There are so many good songs on there! I also am in the middle of The Passage, but got stuck. I haven't been able to do print for some time now, and that's sad to me, but when I am right again, I am going back to it!!

  4. Fun. and Maroon 5 are actually my top favorite artists, those CDs are both very good!

    I have yet to read The Passage, I started it but never finished it before having to return it to the library. Maybe I will try again this year.

    Enjoy your loot!

  5. One day I might get around to reading The Passage - nice to see I'm not the only one who hasn't read it!
    Happy reading!
