After visiting a friend in the hospital, my husband and I decided to go to our favorite used books shop to go treasure hunting again for a couple of hours. Our last similar trip had been way back in November, so it was high time we did it again. Here are the newest, old additions to my piles and piles of yet-to-be-read books:
Tales of the Giraffe by Alexander McCall Smithdetective fiction - the second book in The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series set in Botswana
To Weave a Web of Magic by Claire Delacroix, Lyn Kurland, Patricia McKillip and Sharon Shinn
fantasy - four novellas of fantasy romance
Legacies: A Chinese Mosaic by Bette Bao Lord
non-fiction - stories of diverse experiences of men and women in China during the past fifty years as told by a woman born in China, raised in America, wife of a former American ambassador to China and resident of Beijing in the late 1980s
The Princes of Ireland by Edward Rutherford
historical fiction - an epic saga of individuals and families set against the backdrop of Irish history from its tribal, pagan past to the time of Henry VIII and Ireland's invasion of England
You can see the titles of my previous hunt here. And no, I have not yet read a single book from that expedition.
