Most Fridays, I update my library and share what new books I bought or received during the past week.
Sorry for the light posting this week. I have been hit by some sort of a flu bug and have been feeling terrible. I don't know about you, but I actually don't read much when I'm sick. I tend to watch TV or movies or just nap. But when I am reading, I'm reading some great books right now, so I look forward to reviewing them here.
As for what books I've gotten since my last Update:
I was fortunate enough to win Glimmerglass (Faeriewalker, Book 1) by Jenna Black from the Librarything early Reviewers program.
I also picked up a few books at a library book sale last weekend. I got:
Michelangelo and the Pope's Ceiling by Ross King: I really enjoyed his book Brunelleschi's Dome: How a Renaissance Genius Reinvented Architecture.
The Zookeeper's Wife: A War Story by Diane Ackerman: I've enjoyed her nonfiction books over the years and I even got this one for my mother for Christmas. She enjoyed it, so I thought I'd get a copy for myself.
The Ear, the Eye and the Arm by Nancy Farmer: I thought her House of the Scorpion was really interesting.
Hope you're feeling better now. Glimmerglass looks so pretty and I've heard great things about The Zookeeper's Wife.
