Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted alternatively by Marg and Claire 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 (at Marg's this week) any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries!Well I thought I'd have a pretty small haul this time around. However, I did something I normally don't do: I browsed. I usually just pick up my reserves and try not to glance at the shelves. Well I didn't have anything to pick up on my last trip; I was just returning some books. So I wandered around and this is what I found:
Books:
I love Elizabeth Scott's contemporaries and this is her first paranormal under a pen name. I've seen mixed reviews but I'm going to give it a go!
The cover on this one caught my eye and the description sounded interesting!
Both of these looked interesting. I've never heard of these authors or anything about either of these fantasy series. Anyone read them?
Lastly, I got an email notification that my copy of The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff came in! I've been eagerly awaiting this one and it will count toward my 2010 Debut Author Challenge!
DVD's:
This was a pretty horrible movie. But it has Sam Worthington!
I also had to renew a bunch of books I hadn't gotten around to reading yet:
- It's Not Summer Without You by Jennifer Han
- The Iron King by Julie Kagawa
- Nothing Like You by Laura Strasnick
I'm really itching to watch Clash of the Titans but I haven't gotten around to it. Email or tweet me after you've watched it and let me know if you liked it, will ya?
ReplyDeleteThe cover for Half Brother is rather stylish and eye-catching. I remember when my brother was young he was a fan of Oppel's Silverwing books but I've never picked up any of his books myself (early negative associations because of the bats?).
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your loot!
I love the cover of The Replacements but I've seen mixed reviews on the book itself. I did read The Iron King and The Iron Daughter and I really enjoyed both of them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog. I love the theme of yours! Happy reading!
I have Dog Days in my TBR pile, but yeah... it's in my TBR pile. I might pull it out soon :)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what you think of The Replacement, I enjoyed it:) I've heard good things about Low Red Moon as well, so I can't wait to read your review of that one! Good stuff this week!
ReplyDeleteHey Mollie! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat loot!! I like the mix.
I haven't had time to browse at my library in what feels like ages, which is a shame since that's one of the really fun parts about actually going to the library. I always seem to be running there to pick up books with 15 minutes to spare before closing or something like that. I'm going to have to schedule a visit to the library on a Saturday when I have more time.
This is the first I've heard of Low Red Moon. I look forward to hearing more about it!
Happy reading! : )
