Deze week kreeg ik een van de origineelste bookmail ooit! Uitgeverij Fantoom was zo aardig om mij een recensie-exemplaar van Blind verdriet van Bjorn van den Eynde op te sturen; inclusief puzzel van de cover. Naast lezen houd ik ontzettend van (grote) puzzels maken, dus hier maakten ze mij in ieder geval al heel enthousiast mee!
De Spannende Boeken Weken zijn nog steeds volop aan de gang. Tijdens deze weken staan de spannende Nederlandse (origineel of vertaald) boeken in de spotlight. Wanneer je een spannend boek koopt, krijg je het geschenk Dolores Dolly Poppedijn van Thomas Olde Heuvelt er gratis bij!
Sometimes I really don’t think I’ll ever make it to having less than 70 books on my TBR 😅 This week I added yet another three books to it: two review copies and one book that came in a thriller book subscription!
Afgelopen dinsdag 7 mei kwam Echo, de nieuwste thriller van HEX-auteur Thomas Olde Heuvelt, uit. Ik heb ontzettend genoten van HEX en Echo klinkt al even huiveringwekkend!
Another book haul you ask? Yes, another book haul. I’m still keeping to my book buying ban though – these books are all ARC’s and I didn’t *buy* them, so it doesn’t count right? 😏 Without jokes, thank you so much to the authors of these books for sending them my way! I’m really looking forward to reading them! Now, let’s shove my bookhoarding problem to the side and get on with my book haul.
Last week was the National Book Week here in the Netherlands: a week dedicated to books and writers! It also means that you get the book week gift for free, when you buy a Dutch (original or translated) book. And of course I couldn’t let that pass, so I broke my book buying ban once again and bought a book. Besides that I also got a couple of review e-copies!
Last Wednesday I had a job interview (I unfortunately didn’t get it), and afterwards they gave me a book, which made me very happy of course 😌 Besides that I also bought some books myself. Continue reading
With all the book boxes I’m currently subscribed to, it’s going to be hard to diminish my TBR. I now have a subscription to the Abominable Book Club box (monthly) and a “Thriller abonnement“, where I get a new (not-yet-published) thriller four times a year! So, that’s at least two books a month … Let’s just say these two are an exception to the rule and that the spontaneous book buying has as good as disappeared!
Now, let’s get on with my book haul!
Although I’m still on a kind of book buying ban, I have added a couple of books to my shelves in the past month. Down below I’ll share the blurbs of the books I bought myself and the books that were gifted to me!
This year’s Black Friday was a good one. Pieter and I managed to snatch a bigger and, more important, better television and I bought a couple of books for myself. In this haul I will give you the blurbs of these books, plus the blurbs of one I got to review!
