Checked Out: Library Haul!

Hello, friends! It would be remiss of me to not include a library haul on this blog. After all, I am a librarian, and therefore an avid advocate for all things library!

This haul is actually a tad peculiar. All of the books I checked out today are actually ARC’s that I already own on my Kindle (from Netgalley). However, I’m an old fashioned gal, and if I can get my hands on a physical copy of a book, I sure will.

These first two books I’ve actually already read! But…I forgot to write a review after I finished them. *face. palm.* So I checked them out in the hopes that I can speed read through them again and put out two reviews in January.

The Right Swipe is a novel about a dating app creature finding love. It’s a definite enemies-to-lovers troupe, with a lot of miscommunication and misunderstanding mixed in.

The Wedding Party is a one night stand turned sneaking around relationship. I don’t remember much else about this one, so I’m excited to revisit it.

Tidelands is a novel I’m almost 50% of the way through. Philippa Gregory is one of my all time favorite writers. Now that I’m thinking about it, I think I’ve only read one of her novels (The Other Boleyn Girl). This is an extremely atmospheric novel set in, as the title suggests, the Tidelands in England. We follow a woman whose husband vanished, and while she tries to keep her family alive a mysterious stranger arrives in their small water-bound village.

Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky is a novel I snatched up off Netgalley as soon as I saw it. This is a spin off from Rick Riordan’s work, so if you were ever a fan of Percy Jackson, you’ll probably be a big fan of this one! Instead of Greek mythology, Tristan Strong introduces many readers to Western African gods and legends. Need I say more?

And there they are! My first library book haul on my blog! Do you use your library? What’s the last book you checked out?
