Restocking of TBR

Went ever so slightly crazy on thebookpeople.co.uk, buying up some of their fiction collections and a couple of randoms.

Have been reading a lot lately, partly due to the long commute (made even longer by the failing powerlines, children playing on the line ...) and the World Cup (which has been on the whole time at home, thus making me use my evenings doing more constructive things than watching the TV).

Nipped into Ipswich today to drop some books off and also replenish my shelves. Checked out the OBCZ at Caffe Nero first, where I picked up:
Oscar and Lucinda http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/3932403

and dropped off:
The Mulberry Empire http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/4140440
Vita Brevis http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/4148595 (caught)
The Mystery of the Blue Train http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/4148600 (caught)
Whistling for Elephants http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/4151827
It's what he would have wanted http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/4162338 (caught)
Rebecca's Tale http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/4162358 (caught)

Very restrained of me to leave 6 books and only pick up 1, but then I did a raid of the local charity shops!

Update: 4 of the 6 have been caught, not bad strike rate.
