I spent about a year not reading for health reasons, and I was super excited to get back into reading at the end of last year. Part of that excitement was re-discovering BookTubers and BookTokers and Bookstagramers and part of that excitement was finding information about read-a-thons. And that enthusiasm led to a shopping spree! I try to periodically buy books at various local bookstores (independent and chains) to support book selling businesses. And the past few weeks, I have acquired quite a few new books, so I thought I’d list them and include their covers here. I love a good book haul. 🙂
