I thought I had been great at not buying books for a while but turns out that it was just a lie I told myself, and in just a few months, I still managed to accumilate 10 books. I thought I’d share the list of books I bought in book form, few of which I’ve read, some of which I’ve yet to pick up, and most of them being young adult because I just like it that much!
