Books

It's stopped storming, after a night full of lovely cloud-to-ground lightning, so we're going to the library. Also to Walgreens and Linens N Things (El Burrito needs a pillow).

Today's library numbers: 22 items checked out, 9 on my hold list, nothing horrendously overdue (now).

Back to the library today:

• Remains to be Scene - mentioned earlier
  
• Ready Set Crochet - interesting beginner-level book, with a lot of stitch patterns to try out.
  
• The Battle of the Labyrinth - also mentioned earlier
  
• Shooting Digital - This one is a photography book, which I read slowly because there was a lot of information in there. Also lots of examples and explanations.
  
• Fortune's Fool - a Mercedes Lackey book, but not Valdemar. This one is from her 500 Kingdoms series, which is from a different publisher. The books so far have been a mix of fantasy and romance, based on mythology and fairy tales. This one was heavily linked to various Russian fairy tales.
  
• Overtreated: Why too much medicine is making us sicker and poorer - Didn't finish that one (it was severely overdue), but it looked like an interesting bit of research.
  

Then we checked out 3 books and a DVD, and spent $7 at the sale. Found a Winnie the Pooh ABC book for El Burrito, and a couple of goodies for me: a book by Anne LaBastille (although not Woodswoman), a book by Thelwell the pony cartoonist (but not pony cartoons), and a pair of YA paperbacks.
