Book Haul – April 2022

All of my motivation to keep book buying to a minimum disappeared this month, which you’ll see below. I went a bit overboard. I actually think I bought more books this month than the first three months of 2022 combined…and that’s not counting the ARCs and library loans. To make matters worse, I’m officially out of shelf space. So, I have no where to put the new books other than a giant stack. I really wish we had bought the house with all the nice built-ins in the library. It would make my book addiction a lot easier to accommodate. Oh well.

Book Haul – March 2022

This month has been somewhat of an eclectic mix of eARCs, purchases, and physical ARCs. In total, I purchased eight books this month, which was double what I bought last month. Several of them were physical copies of eARCs I’ve read recently and loved. I also received three physical ARCs this month. I don’t get them that often so it is always exciting to open the mailbox and find one. 🙂 I’m looking forward to reading (or re-reading if I ever make the time for it) all of these books and am happy to have them on my shelves in one form or another.

Book Haul – February 2022

It’s been another slow book buying month for me as I only bought four books this month. I really have been trying to spend less money on books, and it seems to be working for now. However, I’ve acquired quite a few books through the library and obtained a lot of eARCs. I also received two books for my birthday. So, all in all, I’ve picked up quite a few new books when it is all put together. Luckily, most of them won’t be taking up space on my shelves because I don’t have much space left, but I’m excited to read them all soon (if I haven’t already) regardless of the format or source.

Book Haul – January 2022

Believe it or not, it has actually been a pretty slow month for book buying. Of the books below, I only bought about one third of them. The rest of them are ARCs, which is a different problem of its own. lol. Unfortunately, I’ve run out of shelf space again, which means I need to read more of my physical books and unhaul some that weren’t my favorite. It will be a while before I get to that task, though, because I’ve got to get through a ton of ARCs first, which isn’t necessarily a bad problem to have. It just means I’ll have to cool it on buying books for a while, and we all know I usually fail at that. So, if at any point you don’t hear from me for a while, assume I’ve died from being crushed by a falling stack of unshelved books. 🙂
