And to celebrate I decided to buy more books, because what else does a bibliophile do for their birthday?! Even though I’ve been on a book buying ban (somewhat), it was time to treat myself!

More books! (Source)

Without further ado, let’s begin the book haul!

Bought:

Goldie Vance Vol.1 by Hope Larson: A POC Nancy Drew-esque comic? You’ve got me hooked!

Bad Girls by Ann Shen: I follow this author on Instagram and her illustrations are beautiful. Not only does this book have fantastic artwork, but it features some amazing women in history.

Persepolis by Majrane Satrapi: Literally, my favorite graphic novel memoir of all time. Now if only I could get my hands on vol.2!

The Silence of Our Friends byย Jim Demonakos and Mark Long: I was interested in picking this up simply because it’s a graphic novel set in the civil rights era. I can’t wait to read it.

Clueless in Tokyo by Betty Reynolds

Tokyo Friends & Squeamish About Sushi by Betty Reynolds: I couldn’t resist picking up this books about Japan. I loved the artwork style and I like that each book focuses on a different aspect of Japanese culture.

Awkward ย by Svetlana Chmakova: This seemed like a cute story, plus I’ve read manga by this author and she’s a good writer.

Friends With Boys Vol.1 by Faith Erin Hicks: I’ve been eyeing this graphic novel for a while, so at $4 I couldn’t resist picking it up.

Corner Shop by Roopa Farooki: I always like a good rom-com story!

Inland by Kat Rosenfield

We Need New Names by NoViolet Bulawayo: I read a review from a fellow blogger who thoroughly enjoyed this book and plus I’ve been looking for more narratives like this.

The Earl’s Complete Surrender by Sophie Barnes: No book haul is complete without a romance novel (in my opinion). The historical ones are my favorite!

Gifted:

300 Writing Prompts & 300 Drawing Prompts: These types of books always spark my imagination! ย They’re fun!
