Books and more books

Stay tuned for your regular Tuesday update:

Today's library stats: 18 items checked out, 8 on hold, returned 8 items today.

On the return list:
  • Make Love! The Bruce Campbell Way - Fiction, unlike his autobiography, and pretty darn funny. Also a nice fluffy, shallow summer book, and it's illustrated. (P.S. The "Make Love" in the title refers to a movie, not any actual PG or R-rated content. )
  • Cranford - The novel that was made into a miniseries for Masterpiece Theatre. I think so far I prefer the miniseries, but the book was equally as good. The miniseries just had Judi Dench to swing the vote. The book is slightly confusine - the Notes at the back keep referring to Appendix A & B, which weren't included in the Notes.
  • The Frodo Franchise - Didn't finish it, may buy it. But I'm a LOTR junkie.
  • Masterpiece Theatre: A celebration of 25 years of outstanding television - Great behind-the-scenes stuff, and may lead to a longer hold list, if any of the old shows are out on DVD now.
  • Living like Ed - Interesting, and I may get a copy for my sister
  • The Sneaky Chef - interesting ideas to keep in mind
  • 2 DVDs - Reckless, disc 1 (amazing stuff), and There Goes a Fire Truck/Garbage Truck/Truck
Then we spent $1 at the book sale (because I had a grand total of $1.16 with me) on 2 books, and had to leave behind the T.A. Barron book. Oh well.
