Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire from The Captive Reader and Sharlene from Real Life Reading that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. If you’d like to participate, just write up your post-feel free to steal the button-and link it using the Mr. Linky any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries.
Beth Chatto: A Life with Plants by Catherine Horwood – This was happily sitting on the new arrivals shelf when I went for a browse and I snapped it up. It’s impossible to be interested in gardening and not have heard of Chatto, though I’ve actually read very few of her books. The one I did read – Dear Friend and Gardener – was excellent and I’m looking forward to learning more about the woman herself. (Book Depository)
The Way We Eat Now by Bee Wilson – I have been so looking forward to this. Wilson is an amazing food writer and this book, released earlier this year, looks at the way food systems have changed and how that has changed how we – all of us, all around the world – eat. (Book Depository)
Wilding by Isabella Tree – This book was so in demand last time I had it out that I had to return it when I was only part way through. I can’t wait to pick it back up and learn more about the rewilding project Tree and her husband undertook at their West Sussex farm. (Book Depository)
What did you pick up this week?
I’ve got Wilding on my TBR, bought with a book token from a lovely independent shop in Cornwall, so I’ll be interested to read what you think of it.
I loved the first half so odds are good I’ll love the rest! I’ll report back once I’m done.
Where do I find the Mr. Linky list to read what others have gotten from the library this week? I entered my link, but things seem to have changed since I last posted about my Library Loot.
Hi Bonnie, you found the right spot! No one else has shared any links this week, unfortunately, so there’s no other lists to read.
