I absolutely love adding books to my collection, so today I’m sharing my August 2017 book haul with you all! Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve purchased a few books, so I thought you might enjoy seeing what I added to my bookshelf!
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
I really, really enjoyed this book. I don’t know why it took me so long to actually read it! Anna and the French Kiss has been on my to be read list for quite a while. Only after seeing some posts on bookstragram, did I finally decide it was time to see what I was missing. And I’m so glad I finally did.
Geekerella by Ashley Poston
I really love retellings and fairytales. I’m a huge Disney fan and love the world of fairytales because they allow you to escape into a world you only dream about. When Penguin reached out to me about Geekerella, I was immediately interested. It’s a little outside of my comfort zone with respect to plot, but I definitely wanted to give it a try.
Once and for All by Sarah Dessen
I’ve always been a fan of Sarah Dessen’s novels. So I was super excited to hear that she was coming out with another book. Once and for All certainly does not disappoint! Once and for All follows Louna as she helps her mother plan weddings.
Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon
Everything Everything is a really enjoyable book. This is my first Nicola Yoon book and I don’t think it will be my last. Not only is this book captivating and humourous, it’s also endearing and unique! Everything Everything follows Maddy, a young teenage girl who is allergic to the world.
Mad Miss Mimic by Sarah Henstra
Mad Miss Mimic is an enjoyable historical fiction. I’m not sure I would pick it up if I saw it at the bookstore so I’m glad I tried something different! Mad Miss Mimic follows a young girl named Leo who happens to have a severe speech impediment. Because of this, she’s often overlooked by others and finds socializing difficult.
