Here's the books I got this week. Three from the library and two were purchased from a used bookstore.

Bought:
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
Chocolat by Joanne Harris

Borrowed:
Fat Chance by Leslea Newman
The Gates by John Connolly
The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson

I just finished The Bell Jar, and am currently reading Chocolat. I have to say, it's making me crave hot chocolate. That could be a good or a bad thing.

    I haven't heard of The Sky is Everywhere, but just the book spine is so pretty, it makes me want to check it out. Now, that's good design!
