Recent Books

I volunteer at the American Wome's Club, Zurich library once a month. It is interesting, as I run into some many different genres of books as I put them back into the shelves, or check out the books for the library members. And sometimes, I get to chat with the patrons, and they share some lovely tibit of info or other, about a book, event, hobby, class.
Whenever we move houses or towns, my husband usually tells me about the local library, it is like a good sales pitch, USP, the library is within walking distance etc. 

Some recent books I have read with great joy are:
The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery, The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins, The Girl with a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier, How to be good - Nick Hornby among others, books I don't know if I would have picked up myself. These were returns and as I shelve the books, I inevitably read the synopsis at the end and they end up coming home with me.

Oh, the Joys Of Reading a good book!
