I can't wait to read your review of The Weight of Heaven.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fabulous selection of books there. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandra, I have been remiss in visiting you. I hope you have been well. Sea of Poppies is on my tbr list. I'm looking forward to seeing what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteThose are some great finds...happy reading.
ReplyDeleteAnother great set of books Sandra. Your library must have a great stock. I read The Spare Room a couple of weeks ago and thought it quite extraordinary. Had you noticed that DoveGreyReader has recently posted an interview with Helen Garner?
ReplyDeleteI so want to read Weight of Heaven, Spare Room and Sea of Poppies. I can't wait to read what you thought of them!! Great loot!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great haul! I love the cover of The Spare Room, have enjoyed Brookner (but haven't read Strangers), and have Umrigar on my tbr list. Enjoy your books.
