Library Loot #1

Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire from The Captive Reader and Marg from The Adventures of an Intrepid Reader 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!



My Library Loot 

The Big Burn by: Jeanette Ingold

This one I just found sitting on the shelf and it intrigued me. It is based of a true story of the forest fires in 1910. 

Demonglass by: Rachel Hawkins

I read the first book in this series and it was a pretty good light read so I figured I would finally give the sequel a shot.

The Marriage Plot by: Jeffrey Eugenides

I have heard many great things about this book.


The Submission by: Amy Waldman

This book takes place two years after 9/11. A contest is being held to figure out what the memorial should be for the towers.

Summer Sisters by: Judy Blume

I decided to take a chance and see how her adult books are.

Fifty Shades of Grey by: E. L. James (e-book from the library)

I wasn't going to read this book because it doesn't sound like my cup tea, but I have either heard amazing or horrible things about this book and I want to find out for myself.

  4. I've read excerpts from Fifty Shades and I seriously don't see how it's even topping the best sellers lists. There's better smut out there.
