Saturday Shout-Out


On my travels through the blogging world, I find many books that pique my interest. I always add them to my wish list immediately but I tend to forget who deserves the blame credit for inspiring me to add them to my list (and to whom my husband would like to send the bill when I get around to actually buying them). So each Saturday I'm going to try and keep better track, link to my fellow book ferreter-outers (I know, not a word but useful nonetheless), and hopefully add to some of your wish lists too.

Museum of Innocence by Orhan Pamuk was mentioned at Chick With Books.

If You Follow Me by Malena Watrous was mentioned at The Heart Is a Lonely Reader.

The Matchmaker of Perigord by Julia Stuart was mentioned at Snowbell's Reads.

The Three Weissmans of Westport by Cathleen Schine was metioned at Bookfan.

What goodies have you added to your wish lists recently? Make your own list and leave a comment here so we can all see who has been a terrible influence inspiring you lately.

  2. I read My Name is Red by Orhan Pamuk sometime back and I really loved it. I'll keep an eye out for your suggestion too.

  4. I had seen your mention of The Matchmaker...here and thought it sounded interesting. Went to set up for our library's book sale on Thursday night and there it was, sitting on the table, begging me to shell out 50 cents for it. So now it lives in my house, waiting for the day I find the time to read it.

I have had to disable the anonymous comment option to cut down on the spam and I apologize to those of you for whom this makes commenting a chore. I hope you'll still opt to leave me your thoughts. I love to hear what you think, especially so I know I'm not just whistling into the wind here at my computer.
