Library Loot (Sept 5-11)

Library Loot is a weekly event co-hosted by Claire from The Captive Reader and me that encourages bloggers to share the books they’ve checked out from the library. If you’d like to participate, just write up your post-feel free to steal the button-and link it using the Mr. Linky any time during the week. And of course check out what other participants are getting from their libraries.

I've probably gotten this from the library half a dozen times. One of these days I'll read it.

I heard good things about this one. 

I feel like I'm the last person to read this.

I love learning how to use my knife better. I love my instant pot and cookware. But nothing gets done without my knife.

I read the 3rd book in this series and enjoyed it. Looking forward to another good one.

I've been getting a lot of cookbooks lately. Tai went vegan a few months back and I'm at a loss about what to cook. So all of loot lately is vegan cookbooks. Or low carb cookbooks because I'm trying to do more low carb.

I love meat. But it would be easier if I went vegan too. Only have to make one meal instead of 2.

I gravitate toward Paleo but I can't seem to give up dairy.

This one was on a list of Latin American authors. It sounded fun.

I found this one while browsing for another book. Sounded interesting.

I am fascinated by hoarding. 

A nice contrast to the above book.

I'm generally not  a huge non-fiction fan but this one caught my eye. 
I am a huge fan of eggs. It's the one thing I could eat daily and not tire of. Looking forward to more egg recipes.

I'm really digging vinegar right now. I'm looking for more ways to use it. 

I know I got this one before. I still want to read it.

I wanted to read this when it came out.

My Fandoms: Harry Potter

While getting ready for Emerald City Comic Con, I started thinking of all the fandoms I'm apart of. so I'm going to do this series about each fandom I belong to. These are in no particular order.

Harry Potter
I've read all the book, seen the movies, dressed up as HP characters for Halloween and various other events. I have tons of Harry Potter stuff.

I enjoy the characters, the story. I like the character development. The story is very rereadable. The movies are a lots of fun and a pretty good.

I've enjoyed Holly Black's other books so I had to pick this one up.

I found this one on a list of WWII fiction. I'm trying to read more WWII fiction especially books set in German occupied countries.
