Book Haul 70 | 3rd Haul of the Year

It has been 2 month since my last book haul. It has been that way for a while. I still get books but not as much as a few years ago. I know for some this is quite a lot but not for me. At least not in comparison.

★ A Natural History of Dragons (The Memoirs of Lady Trent 1) by Marie Brenna
★ She Who Became the Sun (The Radiant Emperor 1) by Shelley Parker-Chan
★ The Hunger of the Gods (Bloodsworn Saga 2) by John Gwynne = READ

You can see why I needed this stack right? I have been eyeing A Natural History of Dragons for years and I finally found it in the store near me. I’ve only heard great things about She Who Became The Sun. And the Hunger of the Gods was a must as The Shadow of the Gods was one of my favorite reads last year.

★ Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows 2) by Leigh Bardugo = READ
I finally got a collectors edition of one of the six of crows books. It was damaged on the inside (a rip in one page) and so it was 50%. I couldn’t leave at that.

★ We Hunt the Flame (Sands of Arawiya 1) by Hafsah Faizal
I had meant to pick this up around release but never got around to it. A Dutch blogger was selling a few of her books and I bought it then.

★ The House with Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson
★ Beasts of Prey by Ayana Gray

These were my Mothers day gifts.

★ Browl Girl Magic by Dalila Hermans. Illustrated by Fatinha Ramos
From a Belgian writer who was born in Rwanda, about how hard it is to grow up in the west as a black girl. The text in the picture book is in Dutch and English. I thought it was a good book for my collection but also to introduce this topic to Merijn.

★ The Seer’s Promonition (Bundle book 1&2) by Ursula Visser
I pre ordered this bundle of two short stories by Ursula Visser. I want to read more by Dutch authors, especially when they write in English. And Ursula always has something cute with her book releases.

★ These Violent Delights (These Violent Delights 1) by Chloe Gong
★ Our Violent Ends (These Violent Delights 2) by Chloe Gong

I got these for myself to make me feel better when I saw the boxset was on sale.
