In a month where so much stuff happened, I managed to acquire a good amount of books from several different outlets. Quarantine has definitely made me more click happy with purchasing books, but next month I need to purchase a wedding dress so I will need to work on not buying more books! Though I do know I have another order or two that will come in early July…
SUBSCRIPTION BOXES
I received both May and June OwlCrates during this month along with my larger than normal BOTM haul!
- Ashlords (Ashlords #1), Scott Reintgen – BOTM
- Home Before Dark, Riley Sager – BOTM
- The Last Flight, Julie Clark – BOTM
- Incendiary (Hollow Crown #1), Zoraida Cordova – OwlCrate
- Where Dreams Descend (Kingdom of Cards #1), Janella Angeles – OwlCrate
GIVEAWAY WIN
I won a giveaway on bookstagram so I got an ARC of this book!
- The Other Mrs., Mary Kubica
BARNES AND NOBLE
Due to everything going on in the world, I decided to buy two books by BIPOC authors in order to support them in the book community. Too often they are underrepresented not just as characters in books but as agented and signed authors as well.
- Kingdom of Souls (Kingdom of Souls #1), Rena Barron
- A Song of Wraiths and Ruin (A Song of Wraiths and Ruin #1), Roseanne A. Brown
BLACK OWNED BOOKSTORES
With everything going on in the world, I also bought two book from black owned bookstores in order to support them.
- The Boundless (The Beholder #2), Anna Bright
- Aurora Burning (The Aurora Cycle #2), Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
AMAZON
There was a sale, what can I say. I’m not a perfect person.
- The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (The Hunger Games #0), Suzanne Collins
- Wild at Heart (Wild #2), K. A. Tucker
BOOK OUTLET
So Book Outlet sucks now, but I ordered this haul before they posted horribly discriminatory and racial stereotyping nonsense.
- Dark Shores (Dark Shores #1), Danielle L. Jensen
- Through the White Wood, Jessica Leake
- The Last Namsara (Iskari #1), Kristen Ciccarelli
- This Cruel Design (This Mortal Coil #2), Emily Suvada
- Frost Like Night (Snow Like Ashes #3), Sara Raasch
What books did you all acquire this month?
Happy reading, folks!
I’m so excited for you to read Aurora Burning! π
