Library Loot: 12 August


I mentioned a few weeks ago that we had a library delivery service but unfortunately now that has been suspended while we are in a much stricter lockdown. The only way to borrow anything now is to download it.

So this week I downloaded the next Cook the Books bookclub choice, Recipe for a Perfect Wife by Karma Brown. This is a new to me author, and in order to listen to the book I had to download a new to me audio book app. We'll see how that goes shall we.

badge-4Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire from The Captive Reader and Sharlene from Real Life Reading 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

  2. Bummer about the book service! At least you can borrow e-books. Things are really loosening up here in the U.S., so we'll see what happens with COVID. I fear we may be looking at a spike in cases as people take fewer precautions :(

  8. Glad you got a copy of this book for CTB. I really enjoyed the plot. Hope you can have time to read it and link up with a recipe for Cook the Books.

    1. I've started to listen to it already. Curious as whether a recipe will jump out to me to try given that I am not reading.
