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.
I have only a little time left with physical library books before I head off on my travels. I love the convenience of e-books, especially when travelling, but spending months without physical books is always hard. It is really the only thing I’m sad about for my upcoming travels (the lack of income was much easier to make peace with).
To get me in the right mindset, I have a very appropriately New-Zealand-themed selection this week. After waiting since November for a number of Essie Summers ILLs, they have all decided to arrive in the weeks before I leave to get me in the mood!
And for everyone who wondered: don’t worry, my library loot posts will continue while I’m away. I might not always have much to share but they will be here!
What did you pick up this week?
Bon voyage! Throw some package tape into your luggage! That will make it easier when you start sending books home. Give my regards to Essie!
Clever! Not sure I’ll have enough space for that but I’ll definitely be on the lookout for books and can splurge on some tape 🙂

I can’t remember if I told you to look for Mary Scott’s books. She is the Betty MacDonald of New Zealand.
I am also extremely fond of Clare Mallory’s children’s books, mostly school stories.
You did! I will be keeping my eyes peeled.
