What did you find at the library this week?
I've so wanted to read Andrew Davidson's book and still haven't found the time...ugh!
ReplyDeleteWow, you got some good ones. I can't wait to see what you think of Still Alice. I'm afraid it would make me cry like a baby.
ReplyDeleteI bought The Gargoyle a few months but haven't read it yet. Looks like you got your hands on some good books.

I'll be interested in seeing your thoughts on Still Alice by Lisa Genova. I keep hearing really good things about it.
ReplyDeleteShall I put my head in the sand in shame? I haven't heard of any of those... bad me.
ReplyDeleteI need to be better at resisting the pull of good books, anyway...
I really enjoyed The Gargoyle. I have been meaning to read The Book of Negroes for ages!
ReplyDeleteWow, you found some good ones. Actually, most of the books that you got this week are on my TBR list so I will be interested in hearing your thoughts. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI actually got Still Alice in the mail this week, and found out that I won a copy of Book of Negroes. Some of your other choices sound great too.
ReplyDeleteWhy do I torture myself by checking out what you all read?! lol
ReplyDeleteThe Book of Negroes by Lawrence Hill sounds very interesting. Lately, I've been on a historical fiction kick.
What a great set of books! The Gargoyle and The Monsters of Templeton were among my favourite books of last year. I'll be bak to find out more about some of your other books which are less familiar to me. Enjoy!
