The August Library Book Photo

 Collected these books I'd reserved on-line from the mobile library.

An old Rumer Godden that I've not read plus 4 various Non Fiction. 



But, as usual, mostly crime fiction. Two are collections of short stories, two are by authors I've not read before and the rest are by tried and trusted authors.



They should keep me out of mischief for the next few weeks.

 

Four weeks ago I collected these below


I read nine of them. Details on the Books Read 2025 Page.  I've  still got the very fat R F Delderfield book. It's got so many people in the first few pages that I got lost. I have read it before - back in the 1970's - maybe I had more patience then -might try it again if I'm short of reading. 

For goodness sake don't read Nevil Shute's 'In The Wet' if you are offended by language in common use when the book was written in 1953. I looked on a review of it somewhere on line and a person was Horrified and counted how many times a certain word we no longer use was actually in the book! Which I thought rather strange for someone who was so disgusted!

Have a good Bank Holiday weekend - if you are in the UK. I'm doing nothing exciting which will give me plenty of time for reading.
