Summer is in the air – the smell of grilled steaks, drifting over the Rose District this evening. The breeze is keeping the heat manageable; I imagine there will be more competition for the sidewalk tables once the sun goes down.
Busy at lunchtime, too… but I had time to get the tables straightened, the floor swept, and the dishes washed in time to arrange a late afternoon delivery of new books.
History buffs have some choices with the late May, early June releases of biographies of James Madison and Robert E. Lee, the former by Lynne Cheney and the latter by Michael Korda. Both titles are ready to go – discounted substantially from the publisher’s suggested price.
The Game of Thrones TV season is wrapping up, but there is still reading to be done. Pick up where the series left off with George RR Martin’s Song of Fire and Ice – the box set is ten dollars off publisher’s price.
Some new oldies on the shelves as well. The World’s Best Orations is a ten volume set dating to 1899, clean and nicely kept. You’ll find very few of these offered anywhere as a full set – and several are priced at over $200. This set will look great in any home library and priced at $89.
Outlander fans – don’t forget the new title from Diana Gabaldon – Written in my own Heart’s Blood – is on the shelf and ready to start reading!
