The new books that made their way into my house this week (completely without my help, of course):
Hetty Wainthropp Investigates by John Bowen and David Cook (used)
I thought the TV show was adorable so I couldn’t resist this when I saw it at the Sally Anne.
Greenwich: The Place Where Days Begin and End by Charles Jennings (used)
I love this kind of quirky history book, like the one on the Beaufort Scale that I read last year. Plus, I’m planning on going to Greenwich when I go to Britain…
The Guinea Pig Diaries by A.J. Jacobs (borrowed)
I’ve been meaning to read this since it came out, but never got around to it. So far, not as fabulous as his other books, but interesting.
Beowulf On The Beach by Jack Murnighan (library)
An amusing little book that suggests what to love and what to skip in great literature. Literally, what parts to skip.
Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks by Ethan Gilsdorf (e-book)
I ran across this one while browsing at Chapters and just couldn’t resist getting it for my Kindle since I fit into both of the title groups. Fabulous, fabulous read!
Except the Dying by Maureen Jennings (used)
I just finished watching both seasons of Murdoch Mysteries (aka CSI: Victorian Toronto) and thought it would be interesting to see how it compares to the books it’s based on.
