I made a quick stop at the library this weekend to drop off some books and pick up some holds. I could easily have scooped up more books but just trying to show some restraint.
Anyway, here’s what I picked up:
Aimless Love by Billy Collins. This collection features poems from some of his previous books and more than 200 new poems. I love his poetry so I am sure I’ll enjoy this. Actually this is one I probably should buy to add to my collection.
Kiss Me First by Lottie Moggach. From the description: A chilling and intense first novel, the story of a solitary young woman drawn into an online world run by a charismatic web guru who entices her into impersonating a glamorous but desperate woman. Sounds like a good thriller.
Lifetime by Liza Marklund. I’ve not had a chance to read any books by this Scandinavian author so when I found this audiobook I thought why not. I believe this is part of a series but oddly enough I’m not adamant about going through the books in order when it comes to audiobooks.
I’m waiting on a couple of more holds but I wouldn’t mind if they take a while longer before they are ready. I need to work through some of these first. Let me know if you’ve read some of these and what you thought.
I’ve gone on a library book request binge lately. So far I am in line for all of them and the lists are of varied length. But I know my turn will come for one and then the rest will follow within days and there will be no renewals. But yet I keep requesting books anyway! Enjoy your finds 🙂
I wonder what the librarian at our local branch thinks of us. We only ever check out books for my daughter, and, right now, just one at a time. I want to tell her each time we check out a book that I read too–a lot. But I don’t know if she’d believe me. LOL
I love Billy Collins! Enjoy your books!
Enjoy your books, Iliana!
I quite like the blurb of “Kiss Me First”. Looking forward to your review. 😉
Stefanie – It’s hard not to request books when it’s Free right? I am trying to show some restraint but what I’d really like to do is spend a bit more time at the library looking through the shelves. Hopefully all your holds won’t come in at once although that seems to always happen right? 🙂
Literary Feline – Haha… Well, I’m sure she’s super happy that you are taking your little one to the library. I loved it when my dad would take me on Saturdays so I could stock up on some new books.
Kathleen – Me too! He’s great isn’t he? I only have two of his books but really need to add more to my collection.
Melody – It sounds like a good thriller doesn’t it? I’m really in the mood for something good like that but I’ve got two mysteries going on right now so as soon as I finish one I’ll try to pick this one up!
