Some Casual Book Porn

Published on by theorangutanlibrarian

Okay- before everyone gets their panties in a twist, no this is not actual porn. I’ve just accumulated a lot of books for my physical TBR lately and thought I might share it with you.

So here are the books that have been sitting on my shelf a while…

IMG_20170929_183727563And then there are the books I got a couple of days ago from the library because for some reason I worried I wouldn’t have enough to read (well I actually went to give some books back, but who has the willpower to walk into a *house of books* and come out with nothing?)IMG_20170929_183654230And I got these for my birthday yesterday….

Since we’re on the subject I also got the fifth season of Game of Thrones on DVD and this (super easy) guitar book cos I’ve been teaching myself for a few months and my family are bored of hearing me play “Auld Lang Syne” over and over 😉 (plus this just so happens to be my favourite Beatles album cos it’s all their number one hits!)

got and beatles

So there you have it, plenty of bookish delights to get off on (sorry I couldn’t resist!)

Have you read any of these? Did you like them? (I don’t actually want to hear if you didn’t since I’m gonna read them anyway now haha!)

  1. Happy Belated Birthday!! I don’t think I’ve read any of them but I am interested in your Assassin Trilogy review because that’s been on my TBR for a while. I’m so behind on reading, it’s not even funny! 😦 I need a vacation!

        1. hehehe I get that! He’s actually turning out to be one of the best signings, cos not only was he value for money (we paid wayyy over the odds for some other players) he’s really good 🙂 But yeah that’s sad for your team- I can relate with all the players that have left over the years

    1. Ah I know it’s so so gorgeous- I’m super excited to read it (after I’m done oggling that cover lol!) hehe thank you- I’m at the “well this doesn’t sound like a cat screeching anymore” phase, so I’m not much cop, but it’s not as bad as it was 😉 And thank you so much!! ❤

  34. I’ve been meaning to read Curse of the Chalion for ages… one day I’ll finally get to it 🙂 In the meantime, I’ll be keen to hear what you think! And that copy of Strange the Dreamer is beautiful – it’s making me jealous (I listened to the audiobook, which was brilliant, but I wish I had that hard copy on my shelf!). I hope you like the book, I loved it!
