September - November Collective Book Haul

OH HELLO THERE!

Long time no see, darlings.

Seriously though it's been like 3 months.

And you don't know how sorry I am about that.

Truly - from the bottom of my heart, please forgive me.

I promise I wasn't abandoning you. Things have just been really crazy. With school, family, work - I just literally come home and pass out. My mind all out of sorts and unable to comprehend what's in front of me.

Well, I take that back, no really. I've honestly been doing nothing but work. I come home, sleep, then put my uniform right back on. No time to really chill. Oh well. At least I'm making that MONAY! Which means I'll be able to buy ALL THE BOOKS.

JK.

I wish I had that kind of money.

Anyway, here is my long over due, collective book haul. It's not much, but like I said, I've had no time and my money has been going toward nothing but school things and food... mostly food.

Haha.

So here we go, let's get started.(:





1.Where Things Come Back
Goodreads • Buy it
    I've been eyeing this book for a while. Around the booktubes, I'd heard some pretty good reviews. Plus, it's Printz awarded. So I got some birthday money from my God Parents and finally bought it. Can't wait to read it.









2. Blood of Olympus
Goodreads • Buy it
    I am so incredibly late with this thing! I finally bought it. I finally had enough money to press the purchase button and not feel guilty about it later

    ....
    wait

    what am I talking about?! This is Percy Jackson! The very last of     him at that.

    Omg! It just hit me. I'm going to cry.

    just... just give me a moment please


3. Eleanor and Park Exclusive Collector's Edition
Goodreads • Buy it
    I mean did you really expect anything less from me?! How could i say no....?







4. For Darkness Show's the Stars (ebook)
Goodreads • Buy it
    Epic Reads is such a great and magically place. I mean if it wasn't for them I wouldn't own half the ebooks I have. Thank you God for Epic Reads Epic Deals. ILUHYOU!

    Anyway, I'd heard some pretty great things about this book. So when I saw it for just $1.99 I couldn't not press the purchase button.



5. Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales
Goodreads • Buy it
    My mommie is so nice to me. Like she took me to Barnes and Noble on my birthday and just let me run free... sort of. I mean she gave me a $60 limit. Which was more than enough. I found this entire collection for just 20 bucks. Like... what?! So yeah I grabbed it and lived happily ever after. I can't wait to actually get into so I can play some of these stories off in my own writing.






6. Amy and Roger's Epic Detour (ebook)
Goodreads • Buy it
    I mean it's about time. Even though it's an ebook, I was finally able to purchase. I honestly don't know how long I've book wanting to buy this book. Guess since the summer. I dunno. But it was on sale on Amazon and  I nearly cried. I'll probably end up reading this at the beginning of the year. We'll see. I want to. Cuz I've heard so many great things about this story.








7. The Retribution of Mara Dyer
Goodreads • Buy it
    My.
    Heart.

        I can't believe it's over. I purchased this with Heroes of Olympus and when the box came in I nearly cried. Then I read it and almost cried too. I do have a few complaints. But that can wait until I do my trilogy review next year. I'm so glad I finally have a physically copy of at least one of the books. I have yet to purchase the first 2 hardcovers. In due time though.





8. World After
Goodreads • Buy it
    I bought this on a whim. I mean I was honestly just gonna wait until the last book comes out in January but it was still on sale so I was like "meh, why not." So it's in my kindle app, waiting for me to read.











9. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Other Stories
Goodreads • Buy it
    This cover though. Like how on Earth do you expect me not to buy. This was one of my birthday purchases. THANK YOU, MOTHER! I might read this in bits and pieces; share a few stories with my baby sister. But for now it's just a collectible. It's so so pretty. Like you don't even know.










PHEW! So glad this is off my chest. It's been so long, I'm kind of rusty. Hope you enjoyed my collective bookhaul. I mean in 3 months, it's not a lot but I'm a high school student trying to get ready for life outside of high school. My time is literally split in bits and pieces. Anyway, more to come. I triple pinky swear this time. 

CHRISTMAS IS COMING! So I'm expecting lots of Barnes and Nobles gift cards to buy all the books! 

Sort of.

Haha.

So get ready for that book haul.

I love you guys. See you soon.

Hugs and candy,
