I may have gone a little too far…

Some may say I went a little overboard but I mean, should there be a limit on how many books we can buy in a week??

What have you read on this list?

What did you like?

What didn’t you like?

Not listed is Alchemized which I’m on chapter 43 and On Wings Of Blood because they are my “work reads” and currently reading at home, Nocticadia and Ruthless Vows. #whatareyoureading #books #bookrecommendations #bookhaul #booktok

Purchased from: @target @walmartofficial Book Oulet, and Amazon

2025/10/23 Edited to

If you’re an avid reader like me, there’s always that irresistible urge to add more books to your collection, even if your TBR (to-be-read) pile is already tall! I recently indulged in a massive book haul purchased from popular retailers like Target, Walmart, Book Outlet, and Amazon, covering a wide range of genres and authors. Some fascinating titles in the haul include works by Gregory Maguire such as *Out of Oz*, *A Lion Among Men*, and *Son of a Witch*, which bring fresh perspectives to classic tales. Also notable are *Wicked* and *A Touch of Shadows*, known for their immersive storytelling. Readers who enjoy fantasy and dark fiction might find *Dark Prince*, *Immortal Dark*, and *Ruthless Vows* particularly gripping. Alongside fantasy, there are poignant works like *Tiny Traumas* by Dr. Meg Arroll, which delve into mental health themes, and *Raising Your Grandchildren Love-Centered Parenting* by Crystal Paine for those interested in family dynamics. For fans of romantic fiction, *Loathe to Love You* by Ali Hazelwood and *The Only Survivors* by Megan Miranda offer contemporary takes on love and survival. My current reads include *Alchemized* at chapter 43 and *On Wings Of Blood*, which I consider “work reads” due to their complexity and depth. At home, I’m savoring *Nocticadia* and *Ruthless Vows*, perfect for both relaxing evenings and deep literary engagement. If you’ve read any titles from this extensive collection, I’d love to hear your thoughts! What resonated with you? What did you find lacking? Sharing experiences helps build a vibrant book community where we can exchange recommendations, critique plots, and celebrate our love for stories. Book hauls like this show how reading can be both a hobby and a form of self-care. The joy is not just in reading but also in discovering and discussing new authors and genres. It’s also interesting how platforms like #booktok have influenced our reading habits, making certain books wildly popular and sparking new trends. So, should there be a limit on how many books we buy in a week? Personally, I think the real question is, how can we ever have too many books? Each book holds a new adventure, a fresh perspective, and the potential to transform our thinking. Happy reading and happy hauling!

A flat lay shows the "Healing with the Angels Oracle Cards" deck box, a booklet, and three oracle cards: Romance (reversed), Blessings, and Ideas & Inspiration, on a patterned surface. The title "Guidance from the Angels" is overlaid.

A hand holds the reversed "Romance" oracle card, depicting two figures embracing. Text overlays describe its meaning: emotional distance, giving too much, or needing to refocus on self. The word "Past" is also visible.

A hand holds the "Blessings" oracle card, showing an angel scattering flowers over a snowy landscape. Text overlays describe its meaning: good things are present, protection, and support despite emotional messiness. The word "Present" is also visible.
