At this point it kind of feels redundant talking about how chaotic and stressful the month has been, because that’s basically 2020 in a nutshell. Everything kind of sucks, and we’ve just got to get through it the best we can. August is always a difficult month for me in particular because it’s my birth … More August Book Haul
In July I back-slid a little when it came to my book buying, and bought more books than I planned. While I’m not thrilled at myself for buying so many books, I can’t deny that I’m happy to have them in my life. Anyway, enough of that, on with the books. Somebody Told Me – … More July Book Haul
I finally managed to succeed in not buying too many books this month. Mostly, because I’ve been hit by a reading slump where I’m just not in the mood for anything in particular. My bank account is happy about this at least as I’ve definitely been a bit over enthusiastic with my online book buying … More June Book Haul
May was a difficult month for a number of reasons, and honestly I’m just trying to get through in the best way I know how. Unfortunately that sometimes means I shop, and a lot of that is buying books. So get ready, because this is yet another lengthy book haul. The Avant-Guards: volume 2 – … More Book Haul – May 2020
April just flew by in comparison to March, and yet somehow, despite being on lock-down, I still managed to buy eleven books, which is definitely too many considering how many books I’m reading per month currently. I’ve been putting it down to my stress and anxiety from being stuck at home currently. But I definitely … More April Book Haul
This month I was really serious about not buying books, and I held out pretty well amongst all the panic buying triggered by the ongoing outbreak. I was fine right up until the country started to go into lock-down towards the end of the month, at which point it all got to me and I … More March Book Haul
I didn’t really stand a chance this month, I went on a lot of trips to places with book shops and how was I supposed to resist that kind of temptation. I definitely over did it this month, and I seriously need to be stricter with myself in the coming months, because right now I’m … More February 2020 Book Haul
Okay, so as I sit down to write this post, I’m realising that I’m dangerously close to failing one of my 2020 resolutions already, because I seem to have acquired quite a few books this month. I’ll have to be more careful going forward. This is not to say that I regret any of the … More January 2020 Book Haul
At the beginning of the month I told myself that I would not be buying myself any books for myself under any circumstances, until the new year. I made it a grand total of two weeks before breaking, and buying a book. Still, I’m actually really pleased with with the books I brought in this … More December Book Haul
I ended up buying quite a few books this month. Most of them, I bought within the first week of the month when I had a lot going on in my life, because I sometimes use shopping as a stress relief technique. Which I’ll be the first to admit is not the best thing. But … More November Book Haul
