Guidelines:
I haven't posted a STS recently but thought I would do one this week as I received quite a lot of books!As usual I've taken pictures and written why I picked the book up and my initial thoughts on it.
Book Shop Haul:
The Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa- I read the first book in this series, The Iron King, back in October and, after seeing the second one in a bookshop, I knew I had to buy it! And I need to read the whole of this series so that I can fangirl with Eileen from **Singing and Reading in the Rain**.The Immortal Rules- I've already read this book but I had to buy it as I really love the cover and want to re-read it again! And another one that Eileen will love...The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater- I've read all of Maggie Stiefvater's other books and I am a huge fan and so I can't wait to read this book! It's supposed to be great!The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky- I've wanted to read this for a while now after hearing about the movie and although I didn't know much about it I started it right away. I'm really enjoying it and I'll post my review as soon as I've finished it.The Fault in our Stars by John Green- I've wanted to read something by John Green for ages and TFioS is supposed to be amazing!
Library Haul:
The Host by Stephenie Meyer- With the movie coming out in February I think now is a good time to start reading the book and I'm really looking forward to it!Tithe by Holly Black- I'm a huge fan of novels about the Fae and this book seems really interesting!The Twice-Lived Summer of Bluebell Jones- I'm going to be reading this book as part of the British Books Challenge of 2013 and I can't wait as the main character shares the same name as my hamster!VIII by H.M. Castor- I LOVE HISTORICAL FICTION! I'm also reading this book as part of BBC 2013 and I am just so excited to start reading it! Christmas Haul:
The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien- Even before hearing about the movie I've wanted to read this and, having not written a list for Christmas, I had no idea that I would be getting it! I'm so glad I did though as I've put it at the top of my TBR pile! E-book haul:
