Ten Years in the Bookstore, Part 2
In the tradition of Nick Hornby's Ten Years in the Tub, here are the books I bought in January 2017. These are books bought at a bookstore (new or used) but excludes library bag sales, books gifted to me, or books I borrowed from the library.
1. Tudor: Passion. Manipulation. Murder. The Story of England's Most Notorious Royal Family by Leanda de Lisle
Not to brag, but there isn't much more that I could learn about Tudor England that I don't already know, but that won't stop me from buying a good book on it if I can! Plus, I got to buy this book and the three below at The Strand Bookstore in NYC, so Tudor History plus a huge bookstore equals literary love.***
A much more abstract analysis about archives than I was expecting--haven't decided if that's a good thing or not.

Look at it! It's so cute! And at only six inches it's adorably compact, too!

4. Helen Keller: From Darkness to Light by Megumi Sugihara, illustrated by Naoko Takase
Just what I needed--another biography of Helen Keller. But this one is manga!
