I celebrated my birthday this week! Despite the fact that books were obviously #1 on my wishlist, no one dared to gift them to me because no one was sure what kind of books I wanted. I’m totally creating a separate, more specific book wishlist for my birthday next year! Anyway, my family and relatives did gimme some book money and I’ve spent them oh so well. (See photo above) Thankfully, I was able to control myself and saved some of the money for future book hauls.
All the same, I’m super happy with the books I got this week! I finally have the first two books of the Under The Never Sky series! I can’t believe it has taken me so long to get copies! Also, I’ve given in and gotten myself a copy of Throne Of Glass too. (All your awesome reviews have pushed me to do so. This better be as good as you guys were saying!) I bought The Disenchantments and Sorta Like A Rocks Star as well, two contemporaries that’s been sitting too long on my to-read shelf. And I got Kasie West’s books! I’m really excited to read Pivot Point! I got a copy of TDBU too, despite having read it already. (I needed this lovely book on my shelf!) Speaking of, YOU have a chance of winning The Distance Between Us- just enter my international giveaway!
What awesome books did you get this week? What are you reading next?

Wow. Awesome book haul, Hazel! :D
I’ve been wanting to read Pivot Point and Throne of Glass for the longest time!
I can’t wait to hear your thoughts about… all of these! :D
Enjoy!
Thank you, Kyle! I know what you mean- they’ve been sitting on my to-read list for awhile too! I’m super happy I finally have copies! :)
Amazing haul, Hazel! I’m sure you’ll love Under the Never Sky and Throne of Glass ;D
Thanks, Kazhy! I’m very excited to read them! <3
Congratulations!!! That photo of your haul is SO pretty *^* I envy the books AND the photography XD
I’ve read Pivot Point and it’s one of my absolute favorites books of this year! Utterly fantastic! I hope you enjoy it <3
Thank you! :) I love photographing my books so I’m really glad you like the photo I took! I’m definitely excited to read Pivot Point! Kasie West is amazing! :D
Hazel, it looks like you had a fabulous birthday! I kind of like just getting book money though instead of worrying that people might gift you a book that you already have. But EEEP! Onto the books you got! I actually haven’t read Under the Never Sky yet, either, but we so have to! I LOVE THRONE OF GLASS. You better like it or something bad is gonna happen ;) Happy reading, Hazel!
I did have a fab birthday! I like book money too but I also love getting wrapped up gifts hehe! Under The Never Sky is one of those books I kept seeing in everyone’s TTT so I knew I had to read the series sometime. Throne of Glass really sounds badass so I’m looking forward to reading it! :) Thanks for dropping by, Jen! <3
OMG! I love that picture! So pretty!
And The Disenchantments *_* LOVE that one.
Thank you!!!! <3 Glad to hear you loved it!! I'm reading that one next. :)

I LOVED Pivot Point so much. The Distance Between Us and The Disenchantments were also good. I have a copy of Under the Never Sky, but I haven’t read it yet. Whoops. I want to soon though. Great haul. You got a bunch of great books. I hope you enjoy reading them.
I’m pretty psyched about that one cos I think Kasie West can do no wrong! I really enjoyed TDBU and I think The Disenchantments will be a lovely contemporary read. I’ve put off getting a copy of Under The Never Sky for the longest time too but am excited to read it now! :)
Happy birthday again! The Kasie West books look so good – they’re on my TBR list too :) Enjoy!
Thanks, Kayla! <3 Kasie West is a great writer so I hope you get to read her soon!
Love all your books! The picture is actually pretty beautiful. Happy Birthday!
Thanks, Marianne! <3 <3 <3
Excellent haul! Book money is always the best. You don’t have to sideeye your friends or family for buying books you don’t want.
I can’t wait to start Pivot Point. I hope it’s as awesome as what people have been saying.
Thanks, Cee! I guess you’re right! I’m very excited about Pivot Point too! I trust that it’s as good as everyone says though because Kasie West is absolawesome! :)
Oh I’m so excited! You asked what are most memorable moment as an 18 year old was? I had my first daughter. Pretty nifty I must say :)
Wow you got a really good haul! I absolutely loved Throne of Glass. I heard Pivot Point is the best and pretty much every book you got is good.
Again happy birthday.
I love my haul too! <3 So glad to hear you enjoyed Throne of Glass so much! :) I can't wait to read Pivot Point! Thank you, Francoise! :')
Happy Birthday! You got so many pretty books! I heard Pivot Point is hilarious and just awesome, so I really hope you enjoy that one :D
