Book Haul! | July 2019

Once again, a very modest month of book buying. Mostly because hardly any buying was done (and publishers have been kind, letting me catch up on the enormous number of books I already have to read. That being said, I still have five books to show you today! Somehow, I have two audiobooks to show … Continue reading Book Haul! | July 2019

I hope you're settled in with a large cup of tea because I have a lot of books to show you today!

February Book Haul | 2019

Did I have another month of accumulating a lot of books? Why, yes I did. I've been sent a few, bought a few and of course got my monthly Audible audiobook. Really, it's shameful how big this haul is considering January's haul. But what's a bookworm to do? READ IT ALL. BOUGHT The Wood by … Continue reading February Book Haul | 2019

February Wrap-Up! | 2019

February was an incredibly slow reading month for me so this will be an incredible brief wrap-up. I read a grand total of 3 books last month. I'm also magnificently late in getting this wrap-up posted but, you see, I moved houses. I think this is a good excuse, no? If anything, it certainly calls … Continue reading February Wrap-Up! | 2019

MASSIVE December Book Haul! || 2018

I place myself on a book-buying ban each December because I receive so many as gifts. And kids, this year was no exception. I asked for many books this Christmas and I sure did receive a lot. I'm so excited to read all of them and have already knocked a couple off the list. It's … Continue reading MASSIVE December Book Haul! || 2018

November Book Haul! || 2018

Am I late or WHAT in getting this post to you?! Yes, I'm very late. But that's okay because we get to look at all the gorgeous books I acquired in November! Hooraaay!
