Book Haul #61 - The Birthday Edition!


Stacking the Shelves is a weekly event hosted on Tynga's Reviews and Letterbox Love is a UK edition hosted by Narratively Speaking. Here we can share what new books we've picked up this past week. There are also lots of other 'book haul' memes out there for you to choose from!

Welcome to the Birthday edition of Book Haul! As expected no books received but I did get some pretty notebooks for writing and I got money, some of which I splurged on books as it's a special occasion. Here's what I got!

  12. Happy birthday! My Name is Rapunzel looks amazing! I think book bloggers must have some sort of collective intelligence thing going on because everybody has randomly started featuring Scarlet! Hope you like it :)
