Weekly Book Round Up! 29th September


 Weekly Book Round Up!

Welcome to another recap of my bookish and blogging happenings from over the past week! I did something very unusual this week in that I returned unread books to the library. I never do that, but my TBR is so huge at the moment that I want to focus more on my own books if I can.

I've updated my review policy as well. I'm trying to be a bit more picky about what I read for review so that I make sure I stay excited about those books. Luckily I've got some really amazing looking review books coming up!

I've also added a poll to the right hand side of the blog so that you can help me choose which of my owned books to read next. So far Angelfall and Throne of Glass are winning!

Now onto the round up! Here's what I've been reading, buying, borrowing, acquiring and blogging about this week. Links go to Goodreads/Amazon/my own posts.

 Crash Into You by Katie McGarry
Pawn by Aimee Carter

*squeals* I am SO excited about Crash Into You because I loved Pushing the Limits and Dare You To SO much (they were both 5* books for me) and this one has more Isaiah! Katie McGarry has become one of my favourite authors <3 Keep an eye out for my review of that one. I've never read anything by Aimee Carter but the premise of Pawn sounds really intriguing. Thank you to MiraInk for both these incredible titles!

Library books:


Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

Squeeeee! I loved Fangirl so can't wait to read this. I've heard amazing things <3 plus it's Banned Books Week this week and this book was recently banned.

Bought:


 Beauty Queens by Libba Bray

This has been on my wishlist for ages and Libba Bray is an author I've been really wanting to read. I saw a tweet about it being 76p for Kindle so I caved!

Kindle freebies:
 As always, these were free at the time but may not be now. Sorry!



Selling Scarlett by Ella James



A Summer to Remember by Jessica Gunhammer

    1. It was a good week! I'm really enjoying This Song Will Save Your Life so far. It's quite dark but I can definitely relate to a lot of it. I'm so so excited to read Eleanor & Park as well after all the amazing things I've heard. I hope you enjoy Pawn! :D
