There is a reason why this haul is split into two parts. One haul picture, the one on the left (or top if your screen is small), is the books I bought myself this last month. The second picture is the books I got for free. Overall, it's quite the haul of books I wanted to collect off my TBR. A couple of the books I snagged from the Book Swap at Edmonds SBC. Two I snagged thanks to Indie Bookstore Day freebies. Honestly, I don't know how The Fourth Wife didn't get snagged before I got the chance to look at ARCs one of the local bookstores had for customers. When I say I snagged that so fast, like the freaking wind!
Honestly, I knew I wasn't going to make it all month without buying books because of Indie Bookstore Day. Then add on Book BINGO at Nook and Cranny in UDistrict. I had to support the bookstore, letting us have BINGO in their store. I also bought some books for a friend of mine who works for a summer camp, and they have a free little library for the campers. So while I was out at a second-hand shop, I found some gems for that! But those have already been moved to their new home!
Maybe I can go all of May without buying new books! I have zero plans that take me to a bookstore, but you never know. Though I really need to think about doing a month of reading only the books I own. Which means pausing all my library holds, and maybe using next month to keep working through that current stack.
HAPPY READING!!
