✨ hauls ✨

Still did pretty well on my book ban! Most of these were pre-orders from before the ban, or monthly book boxes which I don’t count towards my ban. I still can’t believe I found that copy of Dowry for $10! And B&B was a late night Target run because I was desperate to read it and my eARC’s formatting SUCKED. 😂

• A Dowry of Blood // S.T. Gibson (Fairyloot edition, used bookstore find!) (READ)
• Voyage of the Damned // Frances White (Illumicrate)
• What Feasts at Night // T. Kingfisher (B&N pre-order)
• A Fate Inked in Blood // Danielle L. Jensen (Fairyloot)
• Sunbringer // Hannah Kaner (Illumicrate)
• Butcher & Blackbird // Brynne Weaver (Target) (READ)
• The Terror at Miskatonic Falls // Kevin Lucia (pre-order from publisher)
• To Cage a God // Elizabeth May (Illumicrate)

I got some really exciting review copies this month! I’m especially excited about the new Eric LaRocca and A Haunting in the Arctic. 😍

• Fathomfolk // Eliza Chan (ARC)
• Mead Mishaps 2 & 3 // Kimberly Lemming (review copies)
• We’re Not Ourselves Today // Jill Girardi & Lydia Prime (eARC)
• A Haunting in the Arctic // C.J. Cooke (review copy)
• William // Mason Coile (eARC)
• Melon Head Mayhem // Alex Ebenstein (eARC)
• The Spellshop // Sarah Beth Durst (ARC)
