Mansfield Park by Jane Austen against my earlier saying that I would not read her works due to loving the films and worrying I might lose the image I myself have imagined the books to truely be.

I saw a book in the window of a second-hand bookshop so I had to ask for it. It's called The Medieval Art of Love. The woman kept giggling as she wrapped it and took my money.

It is actually about paintings and drawings in case you're wondering.

Lord of the Fading Lands by C.L. Wilson, the 1st book in the Tairen Soul series.

She's going to be at the Romance Writers of America (RWA) annual conference here in DC next month.

I have heard such good things about that book! I own it but haven't read it yet!

In the interests of adding yet more books to that same category, today I bought The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, The House of Special Purpose by John Boyne and two romance anthologies, It Happened One Night and Love at First Bite.

Today I received Beyond Heaving Bosoms: The Smart Bitches' Guide to Romance Novels by Sarah Wendell and Candy Tan.

I am looking forward to a really good laugh as I read this book!
