Another Book Haul



I love to read before bed or on a really lazy day and recently I have been collecting a lot of books, so it should keep me feeling less bored. I tend to buy my books from Amazon as they are always so much cheaper, or if I do buy books from a book store, I will buy them when they are on offer... I do love to save my money, not just spend it.
The first book I saw was 'Bridget Jones-Mad about The Boy'. This book was half price, so was around £4. I have realised that this is probably the third book in the series and I do not own the other two, so I will have to leave this book until I buy the others. Helen Fielding
The second book I picked up was 'The Book Thief' and the first thing I did was read the blurb  and I read 'Here is a small fact, you are going to die' and I was hooked. I am so excited to read this, well actually I might read it next. The Sunday Telegraph says it's 'Extraordinary, resonant, beautiful and angry' ...How can a book be angry? This book is definitely intriguing which is why I can't wait to read it. I do believe this has been made into a film as well. Markus Zusak
'The Night Circus' is a book I have seen all over YouTube and when I saw it in Waterstones I just picked it up and bought it. I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but it's so simple and beautiful and I always read reviews on books before I purchase them and everyone seems to adore this book. Erin Morgenstern 
I managed to buy 'The Lord of The Rings' trilogy and I will not lie, 'The Hobbit' is one of the hardest books I have ever read, but saying that. I really did enjoy it and I want to finish the series. I think I paid around £15 for the three books which is pretty good. I am debating on whether to read it next to carry on the series, or have a break from it. One thing I did notice in 'The Hobbit' is that it is actually really different from the film. The film has definitely included scenes that are not even in the book and I did get really confused, but I'm always confused so...  J.R.R. Tolkien
I was strolling about in TK Maxx looking for good deals on things and I stumbled across the 'Divergent' trilogy and it was only £10 for all three books ad they were all in excellent condition. It was the only set there so I had to buy it really, didn't I? I haven't seen the film yet, so that gives me time to read them before I do. I know this series has been adored by most people, so I hope that I will enjoy it just as much. Veronica Roth

As I seem to have bought so many more books since this book, I had to buy myself a proper book shelf and I love how I can see all my books on display now, instead of them being squished in my wardrobe.

 I have previously bought more books (oops!), so another haul is coming soon, yay!

Thanks for reading,
