When the new year rolled around I knew that I wanted to prioritize reading and my blog. I used to complain that I never had time to read, but now I find time. Even if it is just 5 minutes or 3 hours. Therefore, I have bought/received a lot of books this month. 23 books in total. It’s a lot of books for me anyway. I usually use my library, but I was sick of not owning them. Anyway, let’s check out what books I got in January!

Great haul!! A lot of books are on my own TBR!!! Also despite having 2 sets of my own of HP, I still feel giddy when people buy sets or one of the books. Happy reading 🙂

OMG. I am living through you right now! I have been so strict and good about my book buying ban (except for the library, but those are free sooo…. it doesn’t count), and I am so jealous of this haul!!

I had Madness so Discreet but I donated it to the resale shop bc I’m running out of room (well I have been for awhile now). I have one bookshelf so every other book is in a pile and I hate it. I started to store them in my trunk but I’m just trying to keep only the ones I know I will love. That cover is so pretty on it though!

Yeah, it is tough only having one bookshelf. I have a little bookshelf and I am starting to run out of room. It’s hard to choose which ones you really want to read. The cover for that book is really pretty, I agree! 🙂
