Friday Finds: 15 May 2009

Friday Finds is a weekly event hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. Participants are asked to share with other bloggers about the new-to-you books found during the week – books you either want to add to your TBR (to be read) list, or that you just heard about that sounded interesting.

Here are three interesting new titles that I found this week (well, new to me anyway). I'm pretty sure all three are going to end up on my TBR list, which is now so enormous it will take more than one lifetime to make a dent in.

A Proper Education for Girls: A Novel, by Elaine DiRollo
Sacred Hearts: A Novel, by Sarah Dunant
The Family Man, by Elinor Lipman

I've never read any of Dunant's other works, although I've got a couple on my TBR list. And I've only read one of Lipman's earlier novels (The Ladies' Man), but it quickly became one of my all-time favorites, so I'm very much looking forward to reading this latest book.

  2. I really have enjoyed Eleanor Lipman's books (especially The Inn at Lake Devine). I have to try this one.

Welcome and thanks for leaving me a comment. I love to hear from visitors.

Also, please note that while I appreciate the thought, I don't play the blog awards game. I think you all deserve awards! But you might think about becoming a follower of my blog -- that would really be the best award.
