Books and Cozy Chaos

Recent Book Buys

I know this is a couple months behind, but I made a sizable addition to the personal library over the winter holidays. Thanks to Christmas and birthday money, I was able to hit up Half Price Books, the local indie bookstore Nowhere Books, and good ol’ Barnes & Noble for a stack of reads. Some new, some previous reads that I wanted my book trophy of. A decent chunk of these were featured in my ARC book haul post a while back. Of the new ones, I am a little hesitant to read “A Little Life” as I have been told by friends it is dense and sad (but good), so it will probably sit on the TBR shelf for a while.

Not pictured here are a couple even more recent buys: Legendborn and Bloodmarked by Tracy Deonn. I am currently listening to Legendborn on audio, and it is excellent! Looking forward to finishing out this series that is a twist on Aurthurian legend. It is also an unflinching look at how a young black girl is seen by society, and that is heightened even more when she enters into the Legendborn society.

I am trying to not buy so many books at the moment, as my ARC list and TBR list is ever-growing. I did also start one of the books I’ve had on my shelf for a bit – Saint Death’s Daughter. I’m only a hundred or so pages into that one (and it is a thiccc book), but it is already weird and quirky and has an FMC that is allergic to violence. Which is her family’s bread and butter.

Any new books lately that have caught your eye?
