Book Haul | November 2017


There is still a week and a half left of November but all the books I got this month have arrived and there are no more plans to order more. I'm gonna save you the whole 'I tried my best to buy less but it didn't happen' excuse because this time around I was very much aware of the books I bought. 

November, so far, hasn't been a good month. I've been feeling really anxious about Uni and my dissertation and I feel there aren't enough hours in the day to do things and the more anxious I get, the less productive I become because I get quite lethargic. Getting books in the mail cheers me up a little bit. I got a mixture of everything this time around. As always, if you're interested in any of them you can link on the titles, it will take you to the goodreads page.

- The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson
- Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward
- The Beginning of the World in the Middle of the Night by Jen Campbell
- Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstances by Ruth Emmie Lang

Book Review // The Improbability of Love by Hannah Rothschild

The Improbability of Love  by Hannah Rothschild { Goodreads } Published by Bloomsbury in 2016 Paperback edition; 479 pages { BookDepository } The Improbability of Love follows a bunch of different characters all involved in different ways with the art-world scene in London when a very famous painting –which gives name to the novel – is found by Annie, the main protagonist we could say, in a thrift shop. Don’t be fooled by the cover which screams chick-lit through and through; the novel deals with so much more.

Weekend Reads

This weekend I'm planning on finishing El día de año nuevo y otros cuentos maravillosos  - a short story collection by Vladímir Odóievski that so far it's simply okay nothing really special- and reading a chunk of Outlander . I'm halfway through the latter and so far, it's a very enjoyable read; I started watching the TV show last year when it premiered but stopped after some episodes because I wanted to read the book. I'm finally caught up with what I saw and from now on I don't know what's going to happen which makes me wanna read even more. What are your plans for the weekend?
