Then from Help The Aged (4 for a quid) The Impressionist by Hari Kunzru, Labyrinth by Kate Mosse, Perfect Match by Jodi Picoult and Candle Moth by R.J. Ellory (for swaps when RiSi starts working again).

    Currently reading: The Shakespeare Curse by J.L. Carrell

    Yesterday I finally managed to get to the sorting office to pick up a book that arrived on Tuesday (and would have fit though the letterbox - grrrr), a swap with Alison, "The Manuel Of Detection" by Jedediah Berry.

    At the Leeds meet Annecater was very generous and gave me "Martyr" by Rory Clements. In the book dip I got "Atlas Of Unknowns" by Tania James (sounds right up my street) and OH got "Nights In Rodanthe" by Nicholas Sparks (now on my bookshelf).

     Came home with some lovely ones from the kind people at the Leeds Meet, thank you to you all.

    Confessions of a Fallen Angel - Ronan O'Brien (it looks beautiful and came from Anne)

    The Book of a Thousand Days - Shannon Hale and Blood River - Tim Butcher (both suspicious looking new copies from Annie, can't wait to read these ones)

    The Camel Bookmobile - Masha Hamilton (Thanks Debbie, this has been on my wishlist for ages)

    Incendiary - Chris Cleave (from the Bookdip I am very pleased because I am reading The Other Hand at the moment, which is really good)

    I got The Invention of Everything Else by Samantha Hunt from Borders in Leeds 75% off, and it would have been rude not to buy it.

    Finally one Mooch waiting when I got home last night Vinegar Hill by A. Manette Ansay
