Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Eva and Alessandra 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!
Ok, now here’s what I checked out this week:
You Are Here by Jennifer E. Smith- The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
- The Uninvited by Tim Wynne-Jones
- Swoon by Nina Malkin
- Darkwood by M. E. Breen
- Peace, Love, and Baby Ducks by Lauren Myracle (I sort of skimmed this one and read the end and decided I’d learned enough from the last couple of chapters that I don’t feel like I need to read the whole thing)
- Wings by Aprilynne Pike
- North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell
- The Plague by Joanne Dahme
- The Mystery of Grace by Charles De Lint
- Jack Tumor by Anthony McGowan
- After Tupac and D Foster by Jaqueline Woodson
I currently have 66 items checked out and 14 holds. Not so bad. :)

lol: you’re obviously my kind of library patron. ;) I want to read more Woodson (I just read Feathers this year), I love de Lint, and I’ve been watching the North and South mini-series over and over, so I should probably get to the book at some point.

You must have a really great library!

I’m glad I’ve become a North & South evangelist. :D lol My favourite de Lint is The Little Country-it’s a standalone novel set in Cornwell.

I do. I’m very lucky!

Sadly, I haven’t read any Woodson so I’m trying to remedy that. I loved Blue Girl but other than that haven’t read other De Lint but this one caught my eye — interesting cover and a female mechanic as the main character. I’d been eyeing North and South for awhile but your post on it caused me to take the plunge and watch it and I LOOOVVEEEDDD it. Hope the book is as good but I’m sure it is if not better.

I will have to add The Little Country to my list. Thanks for the recommendation!
