Book Haul!

Yessssss! I moan about reading ruts, then come home from work and there are packages! Yip yip!

I have gotten:

The Night She Disappeared

The Night She Disappeared by April Henry

The Butterfly Clues

The Butterfly Clues by Kate Ellison

Purity

Purity by Jackson Pearce 

Aaaaaaand:

Siren

Siren by Tricia Rayburn (I already had this but I wanted it in hardcover so that when the new one comes out they all match..I'm just weird that way. Totes soz).

Oh, what to read after the Kody Keplinger marathon?

Cover Slut

I may have mentioned at some point in the past that I, fo sho, judge books by their covers. If there's a choice between a nice cover and a not-so-nice one, I go nice cover every time, even if it means spending more. I recognize the stupidity in this, but hey.

I know that you're always being told that it's what's on the inside that counts, but when it comes to books...nah. Aesthetics are important. In short...

My name is Kitty, and I am addicted to book covers.

My point? I have recently discovered Penguin Deluxe Classics. Dude. They are so PRETTY.

Just look at Emma:

Emma

Or the Wizard of Oz:

The Wizard of Oz: and Other Wonderful Books of Oz: the Emerald City of Oz and Glinda of Oz

Preeeeeeettttty. Pretty.

There are others. There's The Scarlet Letter: 

The Scarlet Letter

And Jane Eyre: 

Jane Eyre

I have complete book lust. I want ALL of these. I have read them all already, but now I want to get them and stroke them.

I need to delete my Book Depository account now. Otherwise I may order all of the above, and that would be bad (and, if I'm honest, I got the Jane Eyre one already....).

Book Haul!!

Yay!

I only have one exam left, and it's an easy one, so I can finally start to enjoy all the lovely books that arrived in the post last week.

Four of them arrived on one day. The post man was cross. There was muttering and grumbling.

The books I got were:

Unraveling by Elizabeth Norris (finally!!)

Unraveling

Breaking Beautiful by Jennifer Shaw Wolf

Breaking Beautiful

In Honor by Jessi Kirby  (So Excited for this one!)

In Honor

Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson (I've started this one and it's great)

Second Chance Summer

Now I just need to quit my job and my life so that I can read full time!
