Stacking the Shelves - July


As the majority of you will know this month Sophie and I have been on a book ban! We made it from July 1st to August 1st without buying a single book... I know I'm a little shocked to!!
We both had moments when it looked like we were going to fail but we stuck it out now we can officially say we are no longer book buying addicts. Detox done.
SO I guess you're thinking, well if she was on a book ban there won't be much to show in July's Book Haul... well you would be wrong!! 
Here's my July Stacking the Shelves.

Until next month!!


Stacking the Shelves #3


Okay I think the first thing I need to say is even I'm a little ashamed of June's haul. There were 20 books in total I think that's a new record even for me. SO, as of the 1st of July Sophie from Reviewed The Book and I are on a book ban. I can still receive books but for the whole month of July I will not be buying any! 
So I guess I should get on with it... this is June's physical Book Haul.
