May 2015 Book Haul

It seems like I just can’t stop getting books. And that’s okay.

  • A Court of Thorns and Roses” by Sarah J Maas. This is the first book in a new trilogy that Sarah’s writing and it’s about a girl named Feyre who accidentally kills a faerie in wolf form. For retribution, Tamlin, a fae from the Faerie Lands, comes to seek justice, but instead of killing her he offers to her to go with him and live in his home the rest of her days. There’s elements of the original Beauty and the Beast fairy tale retelling, as well as other elements thrown in.
  • The Heir” by Kiera Cass. This is the fourth book in the Selection series and it follows Princess Eadlyn, who is the first female heir in Illea’s history. When unrest in the kingdom starts to threaten their way of life, King Maxon and Queen America decide to have another Selection – only this time it’s Eadlyn who gets to choose from thirty-five suitors.
  • Magonia” by Maria Dahvana Headley. It’s a story about a girl who is allergic to almost everything in our world; she can barely breathe down on the ground, but when she sees a flying ship in the sky, she goes on an adventure that she never thought she’d be able to have – and she can breathe again, as well. The cover is gorgeous on this one and I’m excited to read it.
  • The Assassin’s Blade” by Sarah J Maas. I already owned this book in ebook form, but I decided to get it in hardcover because I need its presence in my life. It’s the compilation of five novellas from events taken place before the “Throne of Glass” story begins as they follow Celeana through many trials and different scenarios in Erelia.

So those are all of the books I got this month. Not bad, if I do say so myself.

Let me know if you’ve read any of these books and what your thoughts were, or if you are excited/interested to read them.
