I also bought a book that I was surprised to not have heard a word about until now: Elizabeth Kostova's latest, The Swan Thieves. Considering the popularity of her first book, The Historian, I would've thought someone would've mentioned the sequel here.


I've looked at it and almost bought it but reading the back it just didn't grab my attention, so I left it.
