New books

I am excited to read all of these books that I have recently bought. I must admit that I do kind of judge a book by it's cover. Not that you can tell here, but all of these books (well, apart from Zeitoun) have pretty nice covers. Hopefully the innards live up to the outers.

I did buy Icelander (from a neat bookstore in Vancouver) pretty much for its cover. I started reading it a while ago, but haven't got stuck into it yet.
While in Canada (Toronto) we came across a craft guild with a book sale that was 'pay what you like'. I think I picked up about 5 books, including the below. I could not pass up the opportunity. Thankfully, Wes had quite a lot of space in his backpack and carried most of them home for me <3

At present, though, my reading time is being occupied by Tequlia Mockingbird book club selections. I plan to get through the current books (The Grapes of Wrath, and Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother) on planes & in airports over the next month. Might fit one of these in too.
