Hello everyone!
I hope you guys have had a great week.
I've had a pretty good week which I'm so happy about! It was my 20th birthday on Monday (wow, I feel old) and that was really nice. I went out for lunch and coffee with my family, and then I went shopping with my mom! I also really enjoyed Valentine's Day this year - I celebrated by treating myself to some books and chocolate. It was WONDERFUL.
I got quite a few books this week! I received some for my birthday and was gifted some from publishers. I also got some new bookmarks (YAY - you can never have too many bookmarks, especially as I have the propensity to lose them) which are super cute.
I haven't read nearly as much as I wanted to this week, as I'm still properly getting into a routine with my newly diagnosed diabetic dog, but hopefully things will calm down soon.
I've blogged quite a bit this week and really enjoyed the posts I've put out! They all tied into the number twenty to celebrate my birthday. I'll link them below if you want to check them out!
Onto the books I received this week!
These are the books I bought with my birthday money! I went to a couple of charity shops and I found these two Nicholas Sparks books. I LOVED both of these books - so I'm so happy to have my own copies! There was also a sale at my local bookstore, so I bought my own copy of Take Me On (a favourite), Ivory and Bone, and Torch Against the Night (I can finally read this!). I'm so happy to have these books. 💓
I'm trying to collect the Penguin English Library editions! I really want to read more Jane Austen books, so I'm super happy to have this gorgeous edition.
I love my two new bookmarks too! 💖
Thank you so much for Usborne for sending me to The Train to Impossible Places and The Peculiar Peggs of Riddling Woods. I LOVE middle-grade novels, so I'm very excited to read these!
SQUEEEE!!!!!! THANK YOU, NETGALLEY! I'm so, so incredibly excited to delve into all of these! 💖 I've heard amazing things about Enchantee and Viper! I ALSO GOT JEFF ZENTNER'S NEW BOOK AHHH!! <3 Izzy + Tristan sounds great too!
I'm super excited to get to these! Have you read any of them?
