Winter Book Haul

 I do these so infrequently that I warn you.. this is a big haul. It wasn’t too bad until I really started thinking about it and realized that I have a LOT of books to show you guys. I just added everything up in my head and it was $93 (not including subscription boxes) – but most of them were with my Amazon gift card so I didn’t actually spend that amount.

Arc’s I Received This Month:

Shadowsong by S Jae-Jones

I’m really excited to read this and participated in the blog tour yesterday!

Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody

This is an e-arc, but I am so incredibly excited to be able to read this one that I’m putting it on my physical haul list. I don’t even care.

Wish by Debra Ansing

This author was lovely enough to send me a copy of her book and it sounds so intriguing, I am currently reading it!

Books I Bought: IMG_7830.JPG

Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton

Seeker by Arwen Elys Dayton

A Thousand Nights by E.K. Johnston

I got these three for about $10 at Barnes and Noble from their overstock table, I was so excited to find books for so cheap.

Frogkisser by Garth Nix

The Iron Trial by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare

Cruel Crown by Victoria Aveyard

I had to go to a Scholastic Book Sale for my library and ended up also picking up these books for myself. It was ‘buy one get one free’ and I definitely bought a fourth book but I can’t remember what it was. Either way, I spent about $6.

City of Glass by Cassandra Clare

City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare

I am obsessed with the UK paperback editions of the Mortal Instruments and I need them all. Eventually, I will get books 2, 5 and 6.

The Copper Gauntlet by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare

I just found this at my library and paid $0.27.

City of Bones (10th Anniversary Edition) by Cassandra Clare

I pre-ordered this back in June or July, whenever it first appeared on Amazon – but I just got it in December, so that counts right?

City of Bones (TV Tie-In) by Cassandra Clare

The Revenge of Seven by Pittacus Lore

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Delirium by Lauren Oliver

The Lunar Chronicles (Colouring Book) by Marissa Meyer

I actually went through my Amazon orders because I 100% forgot that I bought these in December. I always put watches on the books I want and these dropped so such a good price that I had to get them.

Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller

I just bought this yesterday because it was $6 for a hardback on Amazon. Guys, that’s amazing.

Sightwitch by Susan Dennard

Okay, so this one is on pre-order but since it comes out soon I had to mention it!

    Great Haul!

    Thanks for letting us know about “Daughter of the Pirate King” being only $6!!! I just bought it 😀

    I really really liked “The Cruel Prince”! I have never read anything by Holly Black before, but I have a book hangover from “The Cruel Prince” so I might go check out her other works. I like Cassandra Clare and I might just have to get “The Copper Gauntlet” because its by both of theme?!?!

      Yeah, you should definitely check it out although the Iron Trial is the first book on the series.

    I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO BEGIN, KYERA. SO MANY THOUGHTS.

    Screaming, because you got Daughter of the Pirate King and it was such a deal. DEALS ARE THE BEST. Lol, I’m also super intrigued by magical ways you got books?? DID YOU DO A DEAL WITH A SHIFTY MAGICIAN ON THE CORNER??? Frogkisser for such a good deal too? AND IT IS SO PRETTY. Also, signed copy of Renegades??? So much love. how pretty is it?

    I have so many more thoughts, but I feel like I’m already fangirled enough. 😉 Wonderful post! ❤

      You are welcome to continue fangirling. I had to go to a Scholastic Book Fair thing for my library. The director asked me to pick up some children’s books and they were having a B1G1 free sale. Some stuff was full priced, but I only considered the cheap stuff.

      Oh the magical ways… Ever the Brave I won from HMH teen but that doesn’t sound as whimsical.

      I was so torn between the Target copy of Renegades and the signed copy from Barnes and Noble. I’ll have to take a photo when I get home and send you the signature, probably on insta.

        To be honest, that sounds like such a dream. I would love to go back to one. That was my fave as a kid. But that’s super smart. Did you end up getting a lot for your library?

        Lol it didn’t, but it’s still cool. 😉

        Oooooh yes! I will have to see. It really was torn with it too, but signed is kind of epic indeed. 😉 Did you get your Iko signed print?

        No not really, we don’t have a ton of money… so I felt really torn when looking at books but I ended up with four new graphic novels and we really need to improve that section.

        Sadly no, I didn’t pre-order the book. Since grad school is absurdly expensive (my first class cost me $2304) I’ve had to be really careful with books.

        Ooooh that’s great that you ended up going with something different like that! Graphic novels are definitely always the ones to suffer, so at least you’re varying it up a bit.

        Oh dear gosh. Yes, I can imagine. D: D: D:
