Book Haul #75

Stacking the Shelves is a weekly event hosted on Tynga's Reviews where we can share what new books we've picked up this past week be they bought, borrowed or downloaded. There are also lots of other 'book haul' memes out there for you to choose from!

I'm thinking that the restrainment of the last couple of weeks was maybe just a blip, see evidence below for proof... On the bright side I got some amazing books! I bought a couple of books I've already read (Year of the Ladybird & Thief's Covenant) but I wanted copies to keep. I may have gone a bit silly with the review books as well, there's just so many great books around at the moment. The highlight of the week though was being approved by Disney for Mary: The Summoning which featured in my Bloody Mary WoW special a couple of weeks ago!

So, January 1st is just around the corner and my year of not buying books starts! I'm making the most of these last few days of buying and picking up books that I really want to read but know that my library won't get in. Unless I get books for Christmas - which I never do - this will probably be my last big book haul :( But on the bright side, I have Unhinged!!!

I wrote this post on Tuesday as I knew I'd received all the books I was expecting this week, including my monthly library book delivery, just as well really as later that day my dad had a stroke. He's okay but it's been a huge shock to all of us, along with the fact that apparently this isn't his first stroke and he appears to have had at least one before this week. He's at home but he's physically worn out and not himself so as I'm the closest of all three daughters I'll be the one looking after him. this means that things may get really quiet around here, just for a couple of days or so, maybe a week but having only just lost my mum you can understand I'm freaking out slightly! I'll do my best to respond to comments and to return visits but this week I can't guarantee it so please bear with me while I get everything sorted out, thanks!


Here's what I got this week, it includes a couple of extras that I've bought to take to BristolCon next week in the vain hope that i don't buy too many whilst there but that may be overly optimistic...
