Friday Finds: 17 July 2009

This week I added four new titles to my "new finds" list. I have a feeling they'll all be going on my TBR list once I've had a chance to check them out a little more closely. And although I hate to admit it, I might buy the Lowry book for the cover alone!

My list:
I discovered the first and last books in last Sunday's New York Times Book Review supplement; Girl in a Blue Dress was released this month, but I believe The Bellini Madonna came out a little earlier this spring (Good Reads says April).

Not sure where I first heard about Evil at Heart or Homer & Langley. Shelf Awareness, maybe? Or possibly a publisher's newsletter. They're both due for official release in September, so I'll have to try to remember to track them down in the fall.

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.

    So E.L. Doctorow is still going, huh? I didn't know he was still alive. ;)

    Also thanks for stopping by my blog. Long time no see. I know I've "run into" you with The Sunday Salon from time to time, but nice to see you in another context.

    Great finds. I like the cover on Girl in a Blue Dress and Lowry's book. I wouldn't mind reading either of those.

    Fantastic finds! I saw the Girl in the Blue Dress advertised in the Random House newsletter and it looks like a great read. Have a fantastic weekend!

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.
