The Nothing Man | Catherine Ryan Howard
post image

This week (actually last week) in new books: All kindle, two recommended by Meredith at the Currently Reading podcast, one TJR Amazon original novella/short story recommended by Anne Bogel from the What Should I Read Next podcast. Maybe I should stop listening to podcasts! #TBR #Kindle #NoSuchThingasTooManyBooks

EvieBee I added The Nothing Man to my Hoopla list after that episode too! I prepared to be thoroughly scared. 3y
LeslieO @EvieBee I know! Me too! 3y

The Magic Mountain | Thomas Mann
post image

Today‘s finds at the used bookstore. Most of these were on the clearance shelf. 📚📚 #usedbooks #nosuchthingastoomanybooks

Lcsmcat I tried Magic Mountain a couple decades ago and couldn‘t get into it. Have you read it yet? I feel like I should give it another chance and maybe a buddy read is the way to doit. 5y
SharonGoforth @Lcsmcat No, I haven‘t read it yet. I‘m willing to try it as a buddy read this summer if you‘d like. 5y
Lcsmcat Sure. Discussing it with someone would be the nudge I need to try it again. 😀 5y

Artemisia | Anna Banti
post image

Afternoon adventure to a delightful, new-to-me used bookstore/coffee shop! The inset photo shows the books I bought. The hardbacks are in excellent condition! 📚☕️. In addition to the tagged book, I bought A Column of Fire by Ken Follett and Caesar by Colleen McCullough. #nosuchthingastoomanybooks

Severnmeadows I‘m going to read Artemisia. I‘ve been interested in her life and her paintings ever since reading about her in Germaine Greer‘s Obstacle Race. (edited) 5y
SharonGoforth @Severnmeadows Awesome! I‘m hoping to get to it soon. 5y

From Half Price Books! The Ralph Ellison by itself would have made the trip worth it! It is a huge book, and would have been his second novel, had he finished it before he died. He spent about 40 years on it. It is a Modern Library edition, and has been heavily annotated by its previous owner. Love it! 💕❤️ #nosuchthingastoomanybooks

I went to the library today to pick up two books on hold (the Timothy Egans) and came home with five, as you do. 📚. #nosuchthingastoomanybooks #libraryhaul #fromthelibrary

Gingerbread: A Novel | Helen Oyeyemi
post image

My favorite independent bookstore (Joseph-Beth) also had a coupon today, so of course I had to visit. I had Gingerbread by Helen Oyeyemi in my hands, and a helpful bookseller then highly recommended Mr. Fox, so of course it came home with me, too! 🦊. #nosuchthingastoomanybooks #bookhaul #josephbethbooksellers

Karkar I love Joseph Beth. I picked up way too many the other day because of the coupon. 🤓😊 5y
SharonGoforth @Karkar 😊👍! I would have bought more, but I pretty much spent all my money! 5y

Happy St. Patrick‘s Day! I took advantage of a Half Price Books coupon and came away with an almost all-Irish haul. I‘m currently listening to Say Nothing on audio, and it is so good and so compelling that I needed to have a copy of the physical book as well. Part 2 to follow! 🍀📚📚🍀 #nosuchthingastoomanybooks #bookhaul #halfpricebooks

Theaelizabet I was riveted by Say Nothing. Glad to hear it works on audio, too. 5y
SharonGoforth @Theaelizabet Yes, the narrator is excellent. I totally agree with you-the book is riveting. 5y
LeahBergen I recently bought The Trial of Lizzie Borden, too. 👍🏻 5y

SharonGoforth @LeahBergen I‘ve been fascinated by and reading books about Lizzie Borden since I was a teenager (and that‘s been a long time ago)! Not sure what else can be said about the case, but I can‘t wait to read it and find out! 5y
Megabooks Are you in Lexington? Did I know that? I used to love going to Joseph Beth in high school! I‘m from W. Kentucky. 5y
SharonGoforth @Megabooks No, I‘m in Ohio and go to the store in Cincinnati. 5y
