Book haul // winter 2017

I don't buy books very often, but when I do, I tend to buy A LOT. Personally, I love reading and watching book hauls (or any kind of haul, really) so today I thought I'd share all of the books that I acquired in the months of June, July, and August. 

In June, I went on holiday with my family to Adelaide, in South Australia, and although I didn't set out to buy any books, I stumbled across a cheap outlet bookshop in Rundle Mall and just couldn't resist picking up these two:

• Rebel of the Sands by Alywn Hamilton 

• When We Collided by Emery Lord

     

Also whilst in Adelaide, I visited THE CUTEST secondhand bookstore/café called The Mockingbird Lounge, where I went a little bit crazy:

• That Summer by Sarah Dessen

• The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

• A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

• To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee

• The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson

• How I Live Now by Meg Rosoff

               

As you can imagine, it was a bit of a challenge to fit all of these in my suitcase when it came time to fly home!

In July, my family very kindly gifted me the following four books for my birthday:

• Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy (Penguin Clothbound Classics edition)

• Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone by J.K. Rowling (20th Anniversary Ravenclaw hardcover edition)

• Hollow City and Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs

               

And finally, I received these three books as part of my monthly The YA Chronicles subscription:

• Song of the Current by Sarah Tolcser (June)

• The Waking Land by Callie Bates (July)

• The Undercurrent by Paula Weston (August)

          

So just a few books to add to my ever-growing TBR! I actually read The Unexpected Everything earlier this month as part of the #TomeTopple readathon and wrote a little bit about what I thought of it in my wrap-up post, which you can read here.

I'd love to hear if you've read any of these books or if they're on your TBR too, so please leave a comment or tweet me and let me know!

Niamh, xo.
