2. Straight Up Tasty by Adam Richman - This looked intriguing and like it would have fun stories and recipes my family would actually eat. So far I'm not disappointed. Source - Blogging for Books. Expect the review soon!
3. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams - We actually own a copy of this book but it's several books in one so the actual book is pretty big and the pages are almost onion skin. This is for my July Reading Assignment. Source - Library.
4. The Naked Eye by Iris and Roy Johansen - I'm so excited about this thriller! I've been wanting to read Iris Johansen for awhile and the blurb caught my attention. Source - Blog Tour
5. Rome in Love by Anita Hughes - I read and enjoyed a previous book by Hughes and this one with tie-ins to Audrey Hepburn was impossible to pass up! Source - Author/publisher.
7. Beach Town by Mary Kay Andrews - This is another author I've been wanting to read so I was thrilled when I won a copy in a giveaway a few weeks ago. Source - Giveaway Win
8. Sanctuary Island by Lily Everett - I was wandering the shelves at the library the other day while the Tornado was at story time and this one intrigued me. Source - Library
9. The Peach Keeper by Sarah Addison Allen - I'm in love with all things peach right now and I've been wanting to try Allen's books. Source - Library
10. Mandy's Father by Juliette Harper - I loved the first three in the Lockwood Sisters series and can't wait to see what this next chapter brings! Source - Amazon
So these are my 10 most recent books and we're just going to talk about the span of time they showed up in!

That's a nice mix of books. I love the Hitchhiker's Guide, so much fun. You make good use of your library; I love mine.<3
ReplyDeleteI love my library! I do wish I used it more but I keep getting books from other sources and don't use it as much as I'd like.
DeleteRome In Love looks good, that one caught my eye when I saw it somewhere last week. And Hitchhiker's Guide- looking to your review of that one. Fun!
ReplyDeleteI really liked the last book of Anita Hughes' book so I'm looking forward to this one. I just started rereading Hitchiker's Guide and am loving it!
DeleteI always never realise how many books I have actually obtained, it's a nightmare. Half the time I find books and am like where did they come from. I have never read Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy but I know many people love it.
ReplyDeleteMegan @ http://readingawaythedays.blogspot.co.uk
I'm pretty sure my books multiply when my back is turned. It's not good to really count how many books come in!
DeleteLooks like you have a little bit of everything in that list! I have read Sanctuary Island and The Peach Keeper on your list and enjoyed both of the them. I can't wait to see what you think of these books.
ReplyDeleteOh good! I haven't heard much about either so I'm glad to hear you enjoyed them.
DeleteI just read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, well, technically I listened to it. Those collections of several books in one are great for the book shelf but pretty unpractical when it comes to actually reading them =P I have a huge paperback copy of Jane Austen's novels and I think I've read only one book with that edition. Happy Reading! - Maggie @ macarons & paperbacks
ReplyDeleteI think Hitchhikers Guide would be fantastic on audio! Those huge collections are absolutely impossible to read. I'm thinking about replacing it with the single titles. They take up less shelf space but you can't read them!
DeleteI love that cover on High Ball!! I am going to have to add that to my TBR list. Along with a few others. :) I love the variety of your books.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it awesome! I'm really looking forward to it!
DeleteWhat a good mix. I've had Andrews to check out for a while. Hope they're all great reads!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to the Andrews. I've heard great things about her books so I'm really excited.
DeleteYou have a great assortment. I'll look forward to hearing about the cooking books. And I want to read The Naked Eye too and I'm on the same blog tour I imagine. I have a copy of The Peach Keeper, but not sure when I'll read it. You know, I've meant to read that author for pretty much forever and have yet to read one of her books.
ReplyDeleteOh yay! I hope we both enjoy The Naked Eye. It looks great!
DeleteThe only one of these I've heard of is Hitchhiker's Guide! I started that one years ago and never actually finished it. Just wasn't my kind of book! I really hope you love all of these though! :D
ReplyDeleteHere are my Top Ten!
I can see how it wouldn't work for you. I love it but I can see how the style wouldn't be for everyone.
DeleteI've heard good things about Sarah Addison Allen. I should totally look into her books. I have a bit of a difficult time with this topic too.
ReplyDeleteThere's just so many books! It's a little shocking how many I get in a short period of time. I'm looking forward to The Peach Keeper. She's an author I've really been wanting to read.
DeleteNot only is that a great assortment of books, I love that they came from so many different sources. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I try to make the most of my resources :)
DeleteCome Hell or Highball has such a nice cover and I need to check out more books that take place in the 1920's so it sounds like a great read to pick up from the library :)
ReplyDeleteI can't resist a 1920s setting ever! I'm really looking forward to reading this one.
DeleteCome Hell or Highball sounds really fun. Also Straight Up Tasty is one I think I need to check out - Great group of books - Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteStraight Up Tasty looks so yummy! I can't wait to try some of the recipes.
DeleteI've read Sanctuary Island and want to read Beach Town, will get to it at some point. Very nice win! Also have The Peach Keeper on my bookshelf to read some time in the future!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Sanctuary Island looked so good and I'm really looking forward to Beach Town. The Peach Keeper looks so good and I'm really looking forward to trying Allen's books.
DeleteI can't wait to read Mandy's Father!! And Come Hell or Highball does sound fun. :)
ReplyDeleteMe either! I'm so excited to see where the story goes next!
DeleteI've always wanted to read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I must remember to pick it up from the library sometime. Enjoy all your books!
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying the reread of this one. It would be fantastic in audio if you could get that!
DeleteHitchhiker's Guide...One of the most enjoyable diversions I've ever taken.
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying this reread and I'd love to get it in an audio! It's definitely an enjoyable diversion.
DeleteOh, I love the cover and title Come Hell or Highball. I hope you enjoy that book. I don't like reading onion skin books. I hope you enjoy The Hitchhiker's Guide!
ReplyDeleteI am intrigued with Back in the Day Bakery. Thank you for sharing it and the others you mentioned.
ReplyDeleteAwesome list. I can say I haven't heard of any of these which is great. I can see some of these are going on my wishlist. I hope you enjoy all your lovely new books. Have a great week and happy reading. My TT
ReplyDeleteI get most of my books from the library, too. The only problem is I can't always predict when I will get them and often all my holds arrive at the same time. Thanks for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI still have read Hitchhiker's Guide. That definitely needs to be on my too read list.
ReplyDeleteSo many nice books and I haven't read any of them. I hope you enjoy them all!
ReplyDeleteA wonderfully eclectic mix! I really should read Hitchhiker's Guide one of these days. And Come Hell or Highball looks like fun, too. Have a wonderful time reading them (and no, we won't talk about how short a time it took you - or me - to accumulate 10 books. Not at all.)
ReplyDeleteHaha! Books literally show up everyday one way or the other.
ReplyDeleteI say my library get Beach Town in and am thinking of giving it a go. I've not yet read one of her books but it seems like a good summer time read.
I really want to read something from Sarah Addison Allen this year too. I'm not sure which book I'm going to start with though.
Happy reading!

Back in the Day Bakery looks good! And it's been a while since I read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I remember laughing a lot when I read it :)
ReplyDeleteI truly believe that our books have a way of accumulating all on their own. LOL
