SECOND HAND BOOK HAUL #1

Hi guys, I have finally decided on a posting schedule for GeorgiaNicolaou. I am going to post every Wednesday and every Sunday. I also might throw in another odd one here and there but we will see how everything goes on. Today I am going to be sharing with you my second hand book haul buys.

I love charity book shopping as you can find really great books for awesome prices. I love reading other second hand book hauls and seeing what people have found, so hopefully you'll enjoy my second hand book haul.

I am not going to type out the synopsis for all of these books so I'll link them for you!

A Discovery of Witches (synopsis) and Shadow of Night (synopsis)  by Deborah Harkness: The first and second book in the All Souls trilogy, which is of course about witches!

After The Crash (synopsis) by Michel Bussi: just read the synopsis and you'll no why I got this book.

Winger (synopsis) by Andrew Smith: this book was all the craze on YT a while back so I thought I may as well pick it up. Also, doesn't the boy on the cover look like Neil Patrick Harris?

The Bronze Horseman (synopsis) by Paullina Simons: I've heard all good things about this book. I know it's set in Russia (which is one of the reasons I got it) and it has a cute love story in it.

The Graveyard Book (synopsis) and The Ocean at the End of the Lane (synopsis) by Neil Gaiman: I've been wanting to read some of Neil Gaiman's books for a long while now and am so happy to have them. Also, TOATEOTL is signed by Neil Gaiman to a kid called Ross. So, Ross, wherever you are, thanks for the book!

A Great and Terrible Beauty (synopsis) by Libba Brey: I have The Diviners by Libba Brey and thought I would pick up another of her books. I don't know how I am going to feel about this book, I know it has really good reviews but I'm not really into historical fiction but we will see how it goes. This is the first book in the Gemma Doyle series.

Jamiaca Inn (synopsis) by Daphne Du Maurier: I hate classics. Like absolutely hate them. BUT the only time I've read classics was for school (that's never fun) so I thought I would try again. Du Maurier's books are not classified as classics but modern classics so hopefully she would be a good stepping stone into the world of classics!

That's the end of my little big second hand book haul! I hope you enjoyed it and I would love to know if you have read any of these books.
If you do go second hand book shopping, I would love to know what you have recently picked up. Also what's the best book you have picked up? I think mine would have to be Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare!
