Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Evaand Alessandra that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library.
I did a much better job keeping my loot in check this week than last week. This is particularly good since I seem to be having a hard time reading things that I’ve had out for awhile. Evidently I have the same problem with library books that I have with TBR books. I REALLY want to read everything when I get it, but when I get something new, the new books become exciting and the older books less so, which means that I tend to just read everything I’ve gotten recently and never get to the old stuff (since there is ALWAYS new stuff coming into my home). Hopefully this week I can make it through a bunch of my review books so I can concentrate on some of these library books.
Just four books this week:
Exodus by Julie Bertagna
Mistress of the Revolution by Catherine Delors
The Midwife by Jennifer Worth
Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr
Ooh, I really want to read Ink Exchange and Mistress of the Revolution! I’m looking forward to seeing what you think. =)

I loved the MIDWIFE — I think my review is going up this weekend. I also enjoyed MISTRESS OF THE REVOLUTION!
Julie P.’s last blog post..Review: The Wonder Singer
I thought The Midwife was really well done also – I hope you like it!
Everyone seems to love The Midwife – hope you do too.
The Midwife and Mistress of the Revolution are both on my TBR list. Looks life you have some great books checked out of the library.

Loved! The Midwife. Hopefully we haven’t pumped up expectations too much and that you will love it too.

I really want to read The Midwife, but my library doesn’t have it. I hope you enjoy Ink Exchange, though. I am quite impressed with Melissa Marr. I really must get around to reading Fragile Eternity!

I’ve been wanting to read The Midwife. I forgot to look for it when I was the library yesterday.

I feel exactly like you that I get each library book with every intention of reading them all!! Sometimes it just doesn’t work out that way
Captivating covers! The closest branch to us has a shelf with the latest books to arrive and sometimes I feel like a racoon with a shiny object. I check out more than I can read.
Exodus is a pretty quick read, if you’re debating over what to pick up.
