Normally I don't have this many books over a short period of time. I normally give myself a limit on how much & how many books I'm allowed. Not that I ever heavily enforced it but, personal limits, someone has to have them.right? Because if you're anything like me, you can get a little bit overboard on the amazing books out there. You inner cookie monster comes out, & you hoard all the books. Then your tbr list becomes never ending. & you end up complementing whether books have took over your life but then it's too late, because they have.

Thanks for the pretty rad package @littlebrown! Defy the Stars by @claudia_gray & some pretty awesome earrings

I do realize that I'm incredibly grateful and lucky to have received the books I was sent. I don't ever think for a second that I'm not. After having all these books in my life, they become a reminder on why I enjoy reading and sharing it with you. And because I was given so many, I don't think I'll be purchasing any books for a little while. lol ebooks for now.

& now I'll leave you to admire the book spines, because they're just as beautiful as the covers! (:
