Stacking the Shelves: Christmas and New Year's Eve Book Haul

Stacking the Shelves is a meme co-hosted by Reading Reality and Tynga's Reviews (the image above belongs to these blogs too). Each week bloggers share the books they got.

On New Year's Eve we exchange most of our presents. I did get one book on Christmas Eve, Michelle Obama's biography but sadly it was in Dutch (I hate reading translated books in Dutch) so I just let my mom have it instead. 

And I also received three Secret Santa books, two from my wonderful Broke and Bookish Secret Santa and one from my bestie!

1. Carry On by Rainbow Rowell 

2. Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami

3. The Surface Breaks by Louise O'Neill 

I got this gorgeous hardcover at my friends Secret Santa party which was a lot of fun!

Here are the books I got on New Year's Eve from my family along with Exploding Kittens:

4. Born a Crime: Stories From a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah

5. Skyward (Skyward #1) by Brandon Sanderson 

I'm really excited to read all of these! Thank you everyone for getting me these lovely gifts!

Stacking the Shelves: New Year's Eve Book Haul

Stacking the Shelves is a meme co-hosted by Reading Reality and Tynga's Reviews. Each week bloggers share the books they got. These are the books I received on New Year's Eve from my family!

1. Middlemarch by George Eliot

I've heard great things about George Eliot and I can't wait to read one of her books! Middlemarch is quite intimidating, though! My parents got me this wonderful Penguin clothbound edition!

2. David Copperfield by Charles Dickens

I've only read A Christmas Carol by Dickens but I hope to change that soon!

3. The Last Magician by Lisa Maxwell

I've heard good things about this book, so I'm eager to read it, because MAGICIANS!

4. A Darker Shade of Magic (Shades of Magic #1) by V.E. Schwab

Yes, I've already read this series and yes I already own two copies of this book, but I just couldn't resist adding this gorgeous collector's edition on my wishlist!

5. The Bear and the Nightingale (Winternight Trilogy #1) by Katherine Arden

I finally got my hands on this book! I've been wanting to read it since it came out! 

They also got me the Dunkirk DVD! Haven't seen it yet, but really excited to do so!
