Library Loot - October 14th



Library Loot hosted by Eva and Marg
asks us to list what we brought home from
the library this week.

The Chocolate Lovers Diet by Carole Matthews 
The feisty members of The Chocolate Lovers' Club are back in a mouth-wateringly delicious new novel. Join Lucy Lombard and her fellow chocolate lovers, Autumn, Nadia and Chantal, once again as they exchange gossip and sort out each other's lives in their favourite retreat, Chocolate Heaven.


The Lost king by Margaret Weis
A galactic revolution has toppled the Starfire dynasty, and swept into power the harsh Democratic Republic. To support the murdered king is now punishable by death. But on distant worlds, the few surviving Guardians carry a dangerous secret: Somewhere in the galaxy, they shield the rightful heir to the throne. Stalking the hidden king is the warlord, a ruthless Republican general who wields the bloodsword. Only a few brave rebels dare to oppose him: young Dion who fights to find his destiny: the mercenary Tusk, the outlaw commander Dixter, and the beautiful Lady Maigrey.


Asking for Trouble by Elizabeth Young
I realised that I have seen the movie, about a woman who needs a date and hires an escort to her sisters wedding, but well I can try to read it anyway. 



My loot, together with some books from the library down south, I borrowed a bunch of books and read them and now my friend will take them with her when she goes bad. But the library is just so much bigger, still not better...
