Broke & Bookish Book Haul - 9/2-9/8

 

Jamie's Book Haul

I'm the lone wolf on the blog today with a book haul. But it was pretty excellent!


For Review:


Hanging By A Thread by Sophie Littlefield
Unspoken by Sarah Rees Brennan ( I think is SUCH a pretty cover!)
Defiance by CJ Redwine
Island of Doom by Arthur Slade
Shadowfell by Juliet Marillier
Foretold: 14 Stories of Prophecy & Prediction by Various Authors (lots of great authors!!)
Dearly Beloved by Lia Habel
Skinny by Donna Cooner
Beyond: A Ghost Story by Graham McNamee (Love a good ghost story!)


Bought:

I didn't buy much this week because I have a TON of book events coming up this month so I'll be buying lots of books and since I no longer have a job...I have to be good :P

Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity by David Allen (Yeahhh I need help getting things done these days and have seen other bloggers on Twitter talking about this  one!)



Our Broke & Bookish book haul is inspired by memes like IMM & Stacking the Shelves & Mailbox Monday. This is just our very simple way of doing it collaboratively so we can participate in all of them and not have to choose one.

    Jealous of all these, but REALLY jealous of your hard copy of Dearly,Beloved. It is SO SO SO good!

    So many beautiful hardcovers! Skinny looks awesome ... and Dearly, Beloved is one I hope to read at some point, but I've heard mixed reviews.

    I totally understand about not buying books when you don't have a job! I've overbought plenty in the last months and am trying to smarten up.

    Have a good week!

    I have Shadowfell on order. I rodered it so long ago, I can't quite remember what it is about, but she is a good author. I'll be looking forward to your review.
