March Wrap-up + Haul + Comments!

So What happened in March...? 

Hey all! 
I’m in a... hmm... not really talkative mood toady, but I feel like blogging and talking to other bloggers and such, so HI! 
How are you? 
I hope you’re having a nice weekend :) 

I feel like even though March was really busy for me, I still had a really bookish month. I (Finally) received all the books I ordered since January, practically all at once! I got new shelves, reached a few milestones, and a whole bunch of goodness! 

What I read
So I didn’t have time to read a lot because uni reasons. But I did enjoy everything I read! 

I ended up reading Everything Everything (5/5), Glass Sword (4/5) and The Rest of us Just Live Here (5/5). 

All of these were so good! 

What I got
I also kinda have a ridiculous haul this month... 
The thing is, most of these I bought over the span of January, February and March, but I received all of them in one big bundle xD 
Let me just show you guys a picture, just for emphasis... 

waaah! 
So we have: 

  • Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas (signed) 
  • Dissonance and Resonance, by Erika O’Rourke
  • Iron Fey books 1-4, by Julie Kagawa
  • The Brilliant Light of Amber Sunrise, by Matthew Crow
  • (better editions of) Heroes of Olympus books 3+4, by Rick Riordan
  • Lady Midnight, by Cassandra Clare
  • The Alchemyst, by Michael Scott
  • Shatter Me, by Tahereh Mafi 
  • The Darkest Lie, by Pintip Dunn (Thank you Kensington Publishing!) 
  • The Curse of the Sphinx, by Raye Wagner (Kindle) (Thank you Raye!)

Yeah... That’s a lot XD I’m gonna go hide now, this is crazy. And in April I’ll get like... one, maybe XD I don’t want to be show-offy and I didn’t realize it might sound like that when I started this post, I’m sorry! I just wanted to share stuff with you guys! 
What books did you guys get in March? :D 

Other goodies!
  • I got my first physical ARC!
  • I reached 500 Instagram followers
  • I’m working with Raye Wagner with the book The Curse of the Sphinx  (Review up soon!) 
  • New shelves
  • I’ve been in the mood for contemporaries. Any suggestions?
  • Make sure to enter my giveaway! 

Right now...
  • I’m 200 pages into Lady Midnight, but have it on hold because I’m reading The Curse of the Sphinx for review
  • Erika @ Books, Stars, and the Pages in between and I are working on a new read-along for you guys! It will start on the 18th of April, and we chose to read Graceling! Intro post to be published later today. 

I could keep rambling for a while, but I need to work a bit now =p 

I’ll see you guys later with another post, but for now, have a lovely day! <3

  2. Ahhhh, I'm so jealous of all the books you got! It's too bad you had to wait so long to get the books you ordered in January and February, but I can't imagine how happy you must have been when you got the huge package! ^.^ And don't worry about being show-offy, because I absolutely love it when I get to see what books people recently got! Spread the love of books to everyone and such :)
    Contemporaries, hmm? Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry is pretty good. Oh, and I completely recommend Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertali! That book is absolutely amazing, and was one of my favourite books of 2015 :)
