Another Book Haul


Well...as you can see...I got a few more books...oops.  Most of these are from Goodwill.  The last two are from bookstores.


Uglies by Scott Westerfeld.  I squeaked like a mouse when I found this! I saw Scott Westerfeld's name and I thought, ".....I know that name......I keep hearing it on Booktube..." So I grabbed it and got all wide eyed and squeaked, "Oh my gosh this book!!!" Now...this book is mangled, has writing on it (the top of the book says "yo." hahaha!) and the binding is broken to all heck...but I'm IN LOVE with this book. It's totally broken in, and I've never seen this printing of it. It was also a library book at one time (it has the check out card sleeve in it) so that explains the condition. But I've been curious about this book for a while now, and now I own it! I want to try and track down the rest of this series in this edition~ Wish me luck!! I love going on  hunts for weird things~


The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. I had heard about this book from Booktube and I decided that it was something I would like (#Booktubemademedoit).  I'm pretty sure it's a movie now...haven't seen that either...The cover is nice! And...bees are pretty cool..I guess. Wow. Hahaha. I don't know what else to say about this...^^'


 Bless Me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya. I read this...hmmm...maybe my senior year of high school and I thought it was a pretty good book. I thought I'd get it and re-read it and see if I had the same feeling as I did when I was required to read and analyze it for a grade. I had also read Tortuga by the same author and enjoyed it as well, so if I enjoy it still, maybe I will check out some more books by this author.


Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas.  This book. Guys...This book. I have heard so many good things about it and when I saw it at Barns and Noble when I was in Chicago. It has one of those deliciously buttery covers and I weirded out my guy friend by making him pet my book (He said that was a sentence he'd never thought he'd hear. Haha!).  I am very excited to read this!! Yay!



Wonder by RJ Palacio. I have heard amazing things about this book. I don't entirely know what it's about, but I heard it was beautiful. I also LOVE this cover. It's very simple, but it's bright and interesting. I don't what else to say about it...^^'



Well, that's all for this haul! As I have stated above, at least a couple of times, I'm very excited to get to these books! Hopefully I'll enjoy all of them!

Until next time!
