Bookhaul #14

Since my last bookhaul I only bought 2 books and I got a hardcover copy in return for an honest review. I wanted to show you them anyways, because I don't think I'm going to buy any 'till September (well maybe 1), so here they are:

The first book you see is Vicious by V.E. Schwab. I wanted this book since I've read The Archived and The Unbound by her, but this edition (hardcover) was a bit too expensive. I heard about a month ago that the hardcover edition is going to be out of print soon, so when I saw the price had dropped a little bit I decided to get it before it was too late.

 

I don't think I have to explain The Martian by Andy Weir. This book is hyped up and you see it everywhere. It's obvious because the movie is coming out in the fall and sci-fi is my genre anyways so I really wanted to read it before the end of the summer.

 

Crossing Into Brooklyn by Mary Ann McGuigan is the book I got from Merit Press. This book sounds really interesting so I'm curious what my opinion is going to be.

 

What books have you bought recently?

#TBRTakedown 2.0 tbr

So there's a readathon next week! For more information about the creator etc. click here. My tbr might change a little bit, but yea. These are the challenges and the books that I've chosen:

 

1. First Book in a series: Just One Day by Gayle Forman: the only first book in a series that I own, ha. (well that was a lie I also have A Court of Thornes and Roses, but hey).
2. Sequel Book in a series: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: besides The Mortal Instruments I don't have any sequels (only oif you count The Davinci Code as a sequel) and I wanted to re-read one of those books anyways.
3. Out of your comfort zone (genre, author, reviews, etc): The Changeling by Philippa Gregory. It's an historical fiction novel and I have it for way too long, but I just didn't want to read it because it's historical fiction..
4. On your shelf over a year (or the longest): The Scarlet Letter by Nathanial Hawthorne. I do have books that I have longer than this one, but those are really hard classics to read for a readathon, so yea.
5. Most recently hauled book: Crossing Into Brooklyn by Mary Ann McGuigan.  I got this book at this point as the latest book in the mail, so I think I'm going to read that one (I got it for free in return for an honest review)

Are you going to participate and if so: what's on your tbr?
