Friday Fives - Five Books I Bought For My Birthday


I'm in a list making kind of mood so I thought I'd start making random five lists.  Sometimes they'll be bookish other weeks not so much.  Last year I bought every book I could find but this year I've been a bit more restrained, so I only have 5 (though I suspect I've got some used bookstore trips coming up!).  


1.  The Time Hop Coffee Shop by Phaedra Patrick - This has been on my TBR and in person the cover is gorgeous - and there are sprayed edges involved.


2.  A Secret in the Garden by Jeneanne O'Riley - More sprayed edges and gorgeous covers AND it looked nice and creepy.


3.  The River Muse by Laura Resau - Another gorgeous cover (are you seeing a theme) and an interesting premise with a bit of magic.


4.  Secret Nights and Northern Lights by Megan Oliver - This was on the staff recommends shelf and it looks really good.


5.  Whose Body in the Library by Eva Gates - This is a preorder so I don't have it yet but I'm really looking forward to it.  I've really enjoyed the series and I'm intrigued by the new direction.
