Book Haul From My Library’s Annual Sale | Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Classics, & More

Hello, everyone! One of the things I get most excited about in the fall is my local library’s annual book sale. That anticipation was no different this year. Since I’ve been on a semi-strict book buying ban throughout this year, I decided it was only fair to finally treat myself and go all out (the prices at the sale are very affordable which makes this even easier). I thought I’d share some of the titles with you.

The vast majority of these are books I have yet to read (the few I have read before I have reviews linked to throughout this post) which puts me way behind with catching up on my physical TBR. However, it aids me in one of my most favorite hobbies: book collecting.

That concludes my haul today. Next week all books at the sale are half-priced, and the week after that they’re $5 a bag. Because of that, there could very well be a few more hauls before the month is out. After this, though, I am definitely back on the book buying ban.

Have you read any of the books on this list? What did you think of them? If not, are there any you’ve been meaning to get around to? I’d love to hear your thoughts below!
