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.
The weather here has been distractingly beautiful lately and I’m having trouble settling down to other books after rereading The Shadowy Horses by Susanna Kearsley (as predicted, after reading A Desperate Fortune the only thing that would do was more Kearsley), so, basically, I’ve given up reading. Let’s see if any of these can tempt me back into my regular habits.
Five Red Herrings and Have His Carcase by Dorothy L. Sayers – Looking back on my reading logs, I seem to make a habit of rereading Sayers in February. This year looks to be no exception.
Love in the Time of Bertie by Alexander McCall Smith – the most recent installment in the 44 Scotland Street series is either a really good, comforting thing to slip into during a reading drought or so mild it will drive me up the wall. We shall see!
The Golden Maze by Richard Fidler – an Australian broadcaster’s “biography” of Prague.
Graduates in Wonderland by Jessica Pan and Rachel Kapelke-Dale – an epistolary memoir between two friends who found themselves on different continents after graduation but determined to stay in touch.
Huda F Are You? by Huda Fahmy – a cute graphic memoir aimed at the YA market about Fahmy’s experiences during high school. This came in over the weekend and I read it quickly and with pleasure. If you haven’t tried her already, her other books are also great!
What did you pick up this week?

The Golden Maze looks promising. Happy reading!
A good mix of books there! After the storm we have had some nice weather which has been good to walk in!

Just love Alistair McCall Smith’s Scottish novels as a go to choice for comfort reading although the Dalhousie ones are my favourite. Hope your choice doesn’t disappoint.
I’ve only read the first Precious book, which was fine but did not inspire me to read more. I suspect I would like his Scottish series more.
Sayers is good comfort reading but as I say that I wonder if I have actually reread any of the ones without Harriet.
