library loot pictureLibrary 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.

Even though I keep checking out books, my holds list doesn’t get any smaller.  I have about 35 books on it now, up from the 30 last week.  At this rate, I’m going to have everything in the library’s collection on hold!  I am doing my best to get the books out in circulation in my grubby little hands, though.

Here’s what I checked out this week:

Books:
Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson
Uglies by Scott Westerfeld
Pretties by Scott Westerfeld
Wild Things: The Art of Nurturing Boys by Stephen James and David Thomas

DVDs:
The Lion in Winter

Sort of a young adult literature week, with the addition of a parenting book and a movie from the 60s about Henry II.  I didn’t much care for “The Lion in Winter,” by the way.  My husband and I already watched it and I’d much rather just read “The Devil’s Brood.”

  10. I’m on the list for Wintergirls-I think I’m 5 or 6, so it’ll be a bit of a wait. I’m excited though! Wild Things has an adorable title and cover. :) Even though I don’t have any kids, I have a weird fascination with parenting books!
