Evidence That My Book Buying Addiction Doesn’t Always Win | October’s Book Haul

By Amy

GUYS I DID SO WELL THIS MONTH!! You may look at the amount of books I got this month and think ‘No, girl you definitely didn’t‘ BUT all of these books except 3 were all preprdered already! That means I only spent money on THREE books this month!!! I will be accepting my applause now. And maybe some flowers. Definitely a big gaudy medal.

Preordered Beauties!

P.S. Sorry that the pictures are so dark and shadowy – I didn’t realise it was so dark in my room

Zeroes (Zeroes #1) by Scott Westerfeld, Margo Lanagan & Deborah Biancotti – This book is legit actually gorgeous, it’s like 500something pages and BEAUTIFUL! I’m almost finished it and it is fantastic!!

Dreamstrider by Lindsay Smith – I am so looking forward to reading this! I’ve read some not-so-positive reviews about it but I’m still eager to give it a go! Plus again That Cover.

The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness – I am so excited to dive into this one as soon as possible!! Everyone who reads it seems to love it!

The Scorpion Rules (Prisoners of Peace #1) by Erin Bow – I read this the other week, and although it isn’t bad it’s just definitely not what I was expecting.

The Sword of Summer (Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard #1) by Rick Riordan – this book is absolutely gorgeous! LOOK AT THAT COVER!! OH I’ve died and gone to book cover heaven! I can’t wait to start this! All the reviews are getting me so excited!

The I-NEEEEEDED-Them Books

Nowhere But Here (Thunder Road #1) by Katie McGarry –Lets be honest, I didn’t exactly need Nowhere But Here, but I’ve been craving some good ol’ contemporary romance and this one has motorcycles in it! So how was I to say no?

 Carry On by Rainbow Rowell – I feel absolutely no guilt of this  buying this book! It’s the new Rainbow Rowell of course I was going to get it straight away!

Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone (Illustrated Edition) by J.K Rowling and Jim Kay – again NO GUILT. This was a necessary purchase. I would not have been able to go on without buying it. I made a fangirling post about it, and showed off some of it’s awesome pictures!

So that’s my October 2015 book haul! What did you get this month? Have you read any of these yet? Let me know below!

        SAME! That’s how I felt it’s about time I read something by him! Plus I have the Knife of Never Letting Go on my shelf but I’m going to read his most recent first.

    Great haul 🙂
    I really need to get my hands on Zeroes ASAP!
    I seen HP at Target yesterday and I really wanted it, but I just could not justify spending $32 on it. I did love the series, but not enough to drop that kind of money on the new one.

      It’s such a quirky take on a superhero book, I really, really liked it! I actually spent more then that on my copy, I JUST NEEDED IT! Anyway, I don’t actually own my own copies of the series, the ones I do have are my parents. I know it was super expensive, but NO SHAME! LOL! 🙂

        Every time I go to the store and see it, I always point out to the boyfriend how much I want it. So maybe he’ll get the hint and buy it for me so I don’t have to spend so much on it, haha!

      I do not blame you AT ALL! pretty much 3/4 of all the books I’ve been excited about this year came out in the last couple of month! There’s like 1 or 2 coming out next month I’m super excited for but then like nothing’s coming out till January! Which is so good because my wallet needs a break.
