Those are all the books that I have splurged on lately. Yes, I know, it isn’t a small haul, but I have a serious book addiction. However, I find that is pretty typical for most book lovers. Still, I would like to go on a small book buying ban. Or at least try to have a bit more self control when it comes to book shopping. Especially since I am focusing hard on getting through my owned TBR this year. And, with all the new releases coming out I am not doing so well with that goal. I have like no self control when it comes to book shopping. In the comments, let me know your latest book purchases. Before you go, don’t forget to hit that follow button.

Until The Next Chapter,
Bunny

Wow, these look like an amazing book selection. Lol, I collect a lot of books. But most of my are free e-books: epub, pdf that I find online. I did buy three books the end of May to this week: 1. Mind Management, Not Time Management 2. The View From Here and 3. Debut Self-care poetry book that I can’t remember the name of. 
Idon’t have shelf place for books so I rarely buy physical books.
