Book Haul

Book Haul | The Festive Edition

bookhaulheader

I haven’t done a book haul in a long time on the blog, so I thought I would share some of the books I received in December for review.

From Bloomsbury:

Bloomsbury sent a lovely box of bookish goodies just in time for Christmas and it contained some amazing books!

P1000309

A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas – EEK! I am a huge fan of Sarah J. Maas’s books so I was over the moon when I found this in the package. I shall be starting it as soon as possible because I can’t resist!

Apple and Rain by Sarah Crossan – I loved The Weight of Water by the same author and I’ve been looking forward to reading this book since its release in the summer. This is such a gorgeous hardback edition too!

The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman, illustrated by Chris Riddell – I’ve already read this and I enjoyed it a lot. My review will be coming later in the month!

From Chapter 5 Books:

The lovely people at Chapter 5 Books sent me two amazing tote bags full of beautifully wrapped books! I got very excited when opening them!

P1000314

Immortal Beloved by Cate Tiernan – I haven’t heard of this one before, so I’m looking forward to finding out what it’s about!

The 100 by Kass Morgan – I see people talking on Twitter all the time about the TV series, so I can’t wait to read this. It sounds really good!

Angelfall by Susan Ee – I love this book! It’s one of the best apocalyptic/angel books I’ve read and I know lots of other people have loved it too.

Half-Blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout – Can you believe I haven’t read a single JLA book yet?! What have I been doing all this time?!

My Heart & Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga – This is a 2015 release that I was very pleased to get my hands on. I’m looking forward to reading it a lot!

The Catalyst by Helena Coggan – This is another 2015 release and I hadn’t heard anything about it at all, but it sounds amazing! Not something I’d usually read, but I’ll definitely be giving it a good go!

My three favourites were:

Attachments by Rainbow Rowell, Angelfall by Susan Ee and The Fifth Wave by Rick Yancey.

I’ve done so much in July, like moving to WordPress which was a huge thing for me. As well as moving, I made my own header and blog button, which was something I was nervous about doing. I’m normally useless when it comes to design.

August Goals

In August, I’m hoping to read:

The Elites by Natasha Ngan which is one of my most anticipated reads of the year. I have a proof sat on my shelf at the moment and it’s taking all of my self-restraint to stop me from picking it up.

The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon is another review book sat on my shelf. I have the gorgeous hardback and I’m going to be starting it as soon as I finish my current read.

My Mad Fat Diary by Rae Earl sounds so much fun and so I’m really looking forward to reading it.

August means that I’m no longer at school so I’m going to be trying to get through my TBR pile and also filming more vlogs (hopefully!)
