Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Eva and Marg that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library.
I have totally been rocking the audio books lately.
Seriously, the audio books section of my Itunes has started to look like my TBR shelves. I don’t know if I’ve just been getting a lot of recommendations for books on audio recently, or if I’m worried about what I’m going to listen to when I finish all of the Harry Potters or what, but I’ve been requesting a LOT of audio recently; I’m definitely accumulating it far faster than I can listen!
Here are the audio books I took out in the last week:
My Life in France by Julia Child
The Book of Unholy Mischief by Elle Newmark
And the books:
These first two I took out because they are the first two books in a series. I’ve already read numbers three and four, so I needed to go back and read the first two.
Annie’s Adventures and Durinda’s Dangers by Lauren Baratz-Logsted
The next two are books for That’s How I Blog 20 Minute Book Club:
War Child by Emmanuel Jal
31 Hours by Masha Hamilton
And now I’m off to register my card at another library in the area so I can pick up a book there that my library doesn’t have.
How about you, anything good from the library recently? Read any of the things I took out this week?
31 Hours is really good! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
I first saw War Child over at Maw Books Blog and thought it sounded excellent. I’m looking forward to hearing/reading your thoughts on the book.

31 Hours sounded seriously intense. I can’t wait to hear your take on the audio. I tend to squirrel away audios on my iPod also. There is nothing I hate worse than finishing an audio and having nothing waiting for me!

How do you decide which books to listen to and which books to read? Sometimes I’ll try to listen to a book and just can’t get into it, yet when I read it I really like it and vice versa.
I have The Book of Unholy Mischief out from the library at the moment!
Enjoy your loot.
Whoo hoo for War Child!
I’m listening to the Book of Unholy Mishchief in the car right now
Great choices! I’ve read The Book of Unholy Mischief and 31 Hours. Both great reads. Due to the Snowpocalypse, I haven’t had a chance to go to the library
