Friday Finds is a weekly event hosted by mizb17 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.
Just two new finds this week. I think I may have first read about the Aldridge book in last week's New York Times Book Review. Not sure where I heard about the Waters.
The Man with Kaleidoscope Eyes: The Art of Alan Aldridge. This one really takes me back. Alan Aldridge's book, The Beatles Illustrated Lyrics was a favorite of mine back in the day. I remember spending hour upon hour just pouring over the artwork, picking out all the references. Great meditation material. Better than drugs.
The Little Stranger, by Sarah Waters. A novel of psychological suspense. I've already got one of her other novels (Affinity) on my TBR list, and this one looks good, too.
I love the cover of that Sarah Waters book. I've never read her before but if it is psycological suspense, I ought to take a look.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reco
I see a lot of Sarah Waters books. Gotta check her out!
ReplyDeleteFinder's delight
I agree with Kaye, the Sarah Waters cover is lovely. I love psychological suspense novels, so I'll be adding that to my TBR list.

I saw The Little Stranger somewhere else recently but totally forgot about it until just now, the internet is HUGE! I am forever seeing interesting things and then don't know where to find them again, I'm so happy we do Friday Finds ;)
ReplyDeleteI also love the cover of that Sarah Waters book. I don't think I have a Friday Find today...but I haven't had much time for blogging this week.
ReplyDeleteThat first cover is quite interesting ...
ReplyDeleteThe Little Stranger looks very good and thanks for reminding me about Affinity too - I really wanted to read that but haven't yet.
ReplyDelete2 good finds!
ReplyDeleteI just discovered "Little Stranger" at B&N the other night and meant to tell you about it. I almost picked it up but really feel like I need to work on what I have piled up already.
ReplyDeleteI mentioned The Little Stranger in my FF post last week! It definitely sounds like a good one.
ReplyDeleteThe cover of the Sarah Waters book is perfect for psychological suspense! Creepy.
ReplyDeleteI've heard of The Little Stranger but didn't know what it was about until now.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, they look really interesting!
