Up until Friday and the UK election results, I was being good. Then I bought myself a couple of books as self-comfort… At least it’s books, not chocolate?
Bought
Thorn I got using a promotional voucher thing; Atlanta Burns was in a deal. Finnikin of the Rock and The Bards of Bone Plain were my naughtiness; my mother bought me After the Golden Age so I can reread it before Dreams of the Golden Age (which I’m still waiting for, but which should arrive soon). Then there’s a preorder of The Wrath and the Dawn because, uh, obviously.
Library
I pretty much behaved myself with the library, though!
Comics
Last issue of Operation S.I.N. Which means it really is time for me to read it, for the awesome of Peggy Carter. (And, uh, I should watch Agent Carter. And Daredevil. Oh god.)
So yeah, a good haul for me! How’s everyone else been doing this week?
You chose some great books!
Thank you!
Nice haul, Nikki! I’m so curious about Finnikin and the Rock, I have seen it around here and there for ages, and it seems like a great story.
I hope you’ll enjoy all your new books, which is definitely much healthier than chocolate 😉
Have a wonderful weekend.
Me too, I’ve heard so much about it. So, impulse buy!
Thanks for dropping by.
I have seen Finnikin and the Rock around quite a bit too. I’m very curious about it! I hope you enjoy it and the rest of your books this week!
Me too, so when I felt like getting something new, I just went for it! Thanks for dropping by.
Nice haul! I’ve got Amanda Downun’s trilogy sitting on my shelf in paperback, so hopefully I can get around to it this summer.
I’ve read the first two books before, but I haven’t got round to the third one yet. So, reread!
I’ve seen The Wrath and the Dawn around Twitter all week. Hope you enjoy it!
I’m sure I will when it arrives!
The wrath and the dawn sounds interesting what is it about?
Stacking the Shelves
It’s a retelling of the 1,001 Nights, with Scheherazade as the main character! I’m excited for it.
You got some fantastic books. The Wrath and The Dawn looks fantastic. I hope that you love all your new books.

I’m really looking forward to that one, I hope it arrives soon. Thanks for dropping by!
Wow nice haul. I think you put up your comics is totally wicked and I truly like your style. I have the Spider Gwen #4 as well. I also have The Bone Palace too. Well thanks for sharing.

I need to actually read Spider-Gwen — I’ve only skimmed it so far! Thanks for dropping by!

Why thank you!
Great haul this week! I can’t wait for The Wrath and the Dawn. Enjoy!

I knowwww, I’m the same. I hope the preorder arrives on time!
Awesome books! I have heard good things about Finnikin of the Rock and The Wrath and the Dawn is totally worth the preorder. Love the comics you picked. I have yet to read Spider-Gwen yet!
Me too! I can’t wait for The Wrath and the Dawn to arrive. And to tell the truth, I still need to read Spider-Gwen properly, sigh.
Definitely going to have to check out After the Golden Age. Thanks for sharing!

I remember liking it a lot the first time I read it!
The Wrath and the Dawn was quite good. I liked it more than I expected, I hope you’ll enjoy it. And I’ll be interested to hear your thoughts on Atlanta Burns, it was a crazy book!
Ha, Chuck Wendig’s books usually are…!
oooh Finnikin of the Rock 🙂 that is a very good book. The Wrath and The Dawn looks really good. Lucky, nice haul. Happy Reading XD
