Xmas & Bday Book Haul! (+ a bonus!)

Xmas & Bday Book Haul! (+ a bonus!)

I’m lucky enough to have my birthday soon after Christmas, meaning that my parents decided to give me a *tad* more gifts, or atleast some bigger ones as it’s twinning for two events.

I do love me some roaming around the bookstore and looking around, but because of Christmas & Covid, I decided to go on and order it from my Indigo Chapter’s website instead and have it deliver to my door. I gotta say that I surprisingly LOVED IT! so I went on and do the same for my birthday — While the atmosphere isn’t the same, it is way easier to find books that way; especially thoses in french or even a mix of both.
-plus you don’t have people in your way of sight-


 

Xmas haul;

My best friend surprised me this year by adding a 25$ giftcard to a small gift that she sent me by mail. Sadly, French books being quite pricier, I could only get one book.

I went with this Quebec French one roaming around the fact that staying friends with an ex is never a good idea, in this “humoristic” fiction story.  [Goodreads]

Birthday Haul ;

As we do every year, I got my annual bookstore giftcard from my parents! However, the amount was smaller than I’d thought – as they decided to go half/half between iTunes & Chapters. I however had an extra 10% off with my premium card, aswell as the remaining of the first giftcard.. and I had enough points for a 5$ off (I could’ve technically add a 4th book if I wanted to spent a 20$ from me.. but as I wasn’t too sure if I wanted it or not, I just went with 3)

* As it was purchased online on Dec 29th, my books still hasn’t arrived yet, thus the cover picture is coming from their Goodread pages.

 

  • Looking at my virtual-wanna-read shelf, I decided to pick “Together, Apart” first- because hey, falling in love while in lockdown? different stories where the love wins? hell ya! Sounds like something i’d need right now [Goodread]
  • Next, I went with the newest Ruth Ware.. as I’m done all thoses that I had from her on my shelf and I needed more — still not sure about the lying game, as i don’t have that one either, and somehow forgot I didn’t had “Turn of the Key” yet. [Goodread]
  • Lastly, I’ve had seen “Almost Adult” on someone’s blog and absolutely NEEDED IT — but as I’ve been wanting to read more french books again, as I got taken with english ones in a while, I went with the French Traduction of it. [Goodread]

Bonus;

Technically I didn’t bought this one.. but the next day I got a review request asking to review a steamy romance (will be my first of that genre!) with a Canadian MC who swears in French too! While the giggle that I got at that randomly-placed swear is what made me think that I NEEDED to read that book, the synopsis looked pretty good too!

Should be the next book that i’m gonna pick up after i’m finished my current read!

Which book(s) did you bought last? Or any new arcs granted?
