Help I accidentally bought 7 books for the 2nd time this month.?

I have no time to read, seriously ...

[notanislander]

I read this on the recommendation of a friend. I know all of the scandal surrounding its publishing, and that's why I was so hesitant to read it. I'm glad I did though, if for no other reason than to have a "real time" voice of someone in the 50s trying to understand the changing world of their childhood. It's not To Kill a Mockingbird, but it was a good read. #gosetawatchman #harperlee #booksofinstagram #bookrecommendations #booklover #novels #reading https://www.instagram.com/carrie85m/p/BsiYbxZlFLl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=fiy36sqsy87i

I THINK I HAVE A PROBLEM (Book Shopping Volume IV)

...but all these are from a charity shop, so it’s OKAY, right?!

I’ll just jump in and tell you what I got!

1. Go Set A Watchman by Harper Lee

Goodreads rating: 3.31

Number of pages: 278

Although this book doesn’t have the best rating, I’ve been interested in reading it for a while now. I wouldn’t have hunted it out, but this hardback was in perfect condition and I couldn’t resist.

Maycomb, Alabama. Twenty-six-year-old Jean Louise Finch--"Scout"--returns home from New York City to visit her aging father, Atticus. Set against the backdrop of the civil rights tensions and political turmoil that were transforming the South, Jean Louise's homecoming turns bittersweet when she learns disturbing truths about her close-knit family, the town and the people dearest to her. Memories from her childhood flood back, and her values and assumptions are thrown into doubt.

2. Asking For It by Louise O’Neill

Goodreads rating: 4.03

Number of pages: 346

I added this to the list of books I wanted to read back in July and had been waiting for a good deal on it. So when I saw the perfect condition hardback, I jumped for it.

It's the beginning of the summer in a small town in Ireland. Emma O'Donovan is eighteen years old, beautiful, happy, confident. One night, there's a party. Everyone is there. All eyes are on Emma. The next morning, she wakes on the front porch of her house. She can't remember what happened, she doesn't know how she got there. She doesn't know why she's in pain. But everyone else does. Photographs taken at the party show, in explicit detail, what happened to Emma that night.

3. The Forgetting Time by Sharon Guskin

Goodreads rating: 3.79

Number of pages: 356

I knew nothing about this book but it looks really interesting!

Single mom Janie is trying to figure out what is going on with her beloved son Noah. Noah has never been ordinary. He loves to make up stories, and he is constantly surprising her with random trivia someone his age has no right knowing. She always chalked it up to the fact that Noah was precocious―mature beyond his years. But Noah’s eccentricities are starting to become worrisome. One afternoon, Noah’s preschool teacher calls Janie: Noah has been talking about shooting guns and being held under water until he can’t breathe. Suddenly, Janie can’t pretend anymore. The school orders him to get a psychiatric evaluation. And life as she knows it stops for herself and her darling boy.

4&5. Reflected In You & Entwined With You by Sylvia Day

Goodreads rating: 4.33 & 4.19

Number of pages: 338 & 356 

These books are the second and third books in the Crossfire series. I read Bared to You (number one) while on holiday so when I saw that the other two books were there at an extremely cheap price, I got them.

I won’t talk too much about the synopsis of these as they are not the first in the series, but if you like Fifty Shades, you’ll like these.

That’s the end of my shopping for now, but I’m sure I’ll be back soon.

This was supposed to be April’s book of the month but was a bit of an overachiever this month and last month that I managed to finish this ahead of time! A definite must read classic! #bookofthemonth #harperlee #gosetawatchman #tokillamockingbird #mustread #newyearsresolution (at Manhattan, New York)

“Why doesn’t their flesh creep? How can they devoutly believe everything they hear in church and then say the things they do and listen to the things they hear without throwing up?” ― from “Go Set a Watchman”, by Harper Lee. Nelle Harper Lee, who was born April 28, 1926. Lee was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1962 for her novel “To Kill a Mockingbird”. Until the year before he death this was her only novel, when an early draft of Mockingbird was “discovered” by Lee’s attorney and published as “Go Set a Watchman”. 📚 #gsbauthorquotes #gsbquotesharperlee . . . . . . . . . . #gasstationburrito #onthisday #literaryhistory #bookstagram #books #bookworm #author #authorquotes #authormemes #writer #writerquotes #harperlee #harperleequotes #gosetawatchman #tokillamockingbird #hypocrite #hypocrisy #ignorance #willfulignorance #cult #cultofpersonality https://www.instagram.com/p/B_huJuEj7gl/?igshid=1v1bc8hwwh20b

I started this whenever it first came out, but didn’t finish it for some reason. Then, I leant it to someone and never got it back, which gave me even more of an excuse to leave it unfinished. After stealing it from my boyfriend a couple of years ago, I figure I should try and read it myself. I don’t think he’s read it either because the bookmark in it is a voucher for Burger King that ran out I’m 2015 🙈 I think it’s been long enough now that I can read it without comparing it to To Kill A Mockingbird, so we will see how it goes. Still not convinced Harper Lee had a lot of say in it being published, though 🤔 #booksofinstagram #book #reading #bookstagram #read #booklover #books #bookworm #bookish #tokillamockingbird #gosetawatchman #bookblogging #bookblogger #bookaholic https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx7hvYggCqL/?igshid=wamttiurxt42

It took me a while to get to the sequel to "To Kill a Mockingbird," but it was worth the wait! Jean Louise 'Scout' Finch returns to Maycomb, Alabama during the mid-1950's to visit Atticus and her childhood home but her visit turns sour when she realizes truths about her family, town, and the people closest to her that contradict her values and assumptions about life.⠀ ⠀ I'm not sure I completely understood the meanings and message behind the story, which just means I'll have to re-read this one in a couple years!⠀ ⠀ #currentlylistening #currentlyreading #tokillamockingbirdduology #gosetawatchman #harperlee #historicalfiction #yalibrarianlife #teenlibrarian #brittanyrecommends #BookRecommendations https://www.instagram.com/p/BuCrsoXBFsz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l99kt10dw74n
