So there you have it! 42 isn’t so bad, right? I managed to read 15 books in October too, which I’m pleased with, especially considering I’m taking a bit of time off from pressured reviews at the moment as my reading/reviewing mojo seems to want to be on holidays lately! That 15 brings my tally of books read in 2017 up to 160, if Ii make 200 by December 31st I’ll be thrilled, but I’m not going to jinx it 🙂

Here’s my October Reads collage:

I’m really quite pleased with how low these hauls are getting. I added up all of the books I’ve gotten since February 1st to today, and I’ve got 283 books added to my TBR shelves. Now some of the 283 have been read, as there would be Netgalley books and review copies, but I’ve only read 145 books so far this year, Then again, that’s not bad going either!

Here’s a collage of the books I read in September:

It’s October now, which means new kindle deals, so I’m off to Amazon to get October’s book haul started… 🙂

February Book Haul

Hi hi!

So I’m late posting up my book haul from February. There are a couple of reasons for this, namely I was away at the end of February and also the blog has been pretty busy and will continue like that this month. Hence I’m sneaking this post in 🙂

This post is basically any and all books that I’ve gotten during the previous month. This list includes books I’ve bought (Oh hi Amazon and Book Depository!), books I’ve been sent to read and review, books from publishers and so on.

I think that this has been my lowest book haul post to date, I’ve not checked, but it seems very small in comparison to last year. The reason for that is that I’ve been trying not to buy books. I KNOW!!!!!! But, I have totally cut down so there’s that!

Anyways, here are the books from my February book haul:

  1. A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness
  2. High Force by L. J. Ross
  3. Desperation Road by Michael Farris Smith
  4. Relics by Tim Lebbon
  5. The Light We Lost by Jill Santopolo
  6. The Stolen Child by Sanjida Kay
  7. The Fourth Monkey by J. D. Barker
  8. Larchfield by Polly Clarke
  9. Six Stories by Matt Wesolowski
  10. Our Little Secret by Claudia Carroll
  11. The Caller by Chris Carter
  12. Blue Light Yokohama by Nicolás Obregón
  13. The Cutaway by Christina Kovac
  14. Deadly Game by Matt Johnson
  15. The Liar by Steve Cavanagh
  16. Every Three Hours by Chris Mooney
  17. Fear The Dark by Chris Mooney
  18. The Soul Collector by Chris Mooney
  19. The Dead Room by Chris Mooney
  20. The Secret Friend by Chris Mooney
  21. Only The Truth by Adam Croft
  22. The Breakdown by BA Paris
  23. The Damselfly by SJI Holliday
  24. Scare Me by Richard Parker
  25. Salvation Road by Mark Dawson
  26. Talking to the Dead by Harry Bingham
  27. Dark Water by Robert Bryndza
  28. Someone is Watching by Joy Fielding

So, 28… that is so much less than before. But I guess that’s a good sign of my restraint from book-buying, right? RIGHT????? 🙂

Until next time, I’ll leave you with a few photos of what I got. Also, if you’re on Instagram (Yes, I did screenshots of my own feed to see the books!), you can see my username there if you want to search and follow!
