Book Haul/// Books of January 2019.

Hello! 

And here we are with my first batch of books hauled in 2019. 

January feels like it was so long away...funny how time works. 

I got all of these books in the second week of January and these were a great way to kickstart my New Year in terms of what I added to my bookshelves. 

I have already read 3 of these books and the rest I am sure to delve into soon. 

Let's see what I added to my shelves in January. 

First up, the book I wanted the minute I saw it! 

Perfection!! 

This book is seriously gorgeous. 

Inside and out. 

Read. 

Loved.

Reviewed. 

A thriller. 

I recently read something else by the same author and wanted to read more from her. 

My sister may read this one before I do. 

This book- We That Are Young- had been on my radar for most of 2018. 

I have heard only good things and so  after spending months on my Wishlist, I decided to start my year right and get it. 

It's a modern day retelling of King Lear and I can't wait to read it soon. Possibly in March. 

I have never read a Perumal Murugan book that I didn't like. And I am sure this one is bound to be no different. 

Now for two Children's Books that I read in January itself. 

I love reading simple, kid lit sometimes. It's a great way step into a world far uncomplicated than the one we inhabit. 

I enjoyed both of these books and am so glad I picked them up. 

BOOKS BOUGHT/// 

We That Are Young by Preeti Taneja 

The Goat Thief by Perumal Murugan 

The Forest of Enchantments by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni 

Ahimsa by Surpiya Kelkar 

Black Eyed Susans by Julia Heaberlin

3/6 read and the rest will probably get read in the first half of 2019. 

One my book buying goals for 2019 is to buy books that I cannot wait to read. So far, I think,  I've done quite well on goal. 

It's the 13th of February and so far I haven't bought a single book in February :O 

What is life?! 

But I do have some books sitting on my Amazon Wishlist waiting to come home!
