So, I came across an interesting-looking book while I was at the store today, about how Denmark helped its Jewish citizens escape to Sweden during WWII (
Countrymen by Bo Lidegaard). Very exciting, because my bookstore never has any books about northern Europe, except occasionally one or two about vikings. I was really tempted to get it, because it looks interesting, but it was in hardcover.
Can't stand hardcovers, personally. They're heavy, they take up so much space on the bookshelf, I can't just throw them into my bag when I go to work... Not to mention that they're expensive. Blah. Well, I might wait until this one comes in paperback. If it will.
It's been a quiet week, aside from the thunderstorms. It's so hot that nobody wants to do anything except laze around and do nothing. But this weekend I want to do a bit more re-arranging... I have a lot of books hidden away in drawers and cupboards and stuff, and I want to try tackling some of that mess now that my bookshelf is all tidy.
