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.

Happy New Year! And here’s to a brand new year of borrowing books from the library.

New year, new reading challenges! I hopefully will put up a proper post about challenges soon. In the meantime, I’ve picked up some library books that fit some challenge topics

What I got from the library this week:

Weather – Jenny Offill (for Book Riot – Read any book from the Women’s Prize shortlist/longlist/winner list)

If Beale Street Could Talk – James Baldwin (I’m trying again to read a classic a month)

XOXO – Axie Oh

Himawari House – Harmony Becker

The Backups – Alex de Campi
