Oh my god! I can‘t believe I forgot about April‘s #Bookspin #Doublespin & #BookspinBingo list! Better late than never. At least I have a ton of #BirthdayHaul books to put on there. Hopefully this month will be a MUCH better reading month than Marchs total blowout🙄

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! Never too late to BookSpin!! 😁 12mo

RaeLovesToRead Those endpapers!! 😍😍😍 12mo
Lizpixie @RaeLovesToRead that‘s her real signature in the top right corner. It‘s done in silver marker so it fits in with the pattern! 12mo
RaeLovesToRead It's beautiful!!! (She signed my copy, but it doesn't have these gorgeous papers!!) 💕 12mo
Lizpixie @RaeLovesToRead it‘s another Waterstones preorder. This one I bought for myself as a birthday present. (edited) 12mo

The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi | Shannon Chakraborty

No14 & the penultimate of my #BirthdayHaul (so far😋)is this new book by The City Of Brass author. Set in the same world, it features a retired pirate captain, trying gracefully to live a life full of motherhood & piety, who‘s tempted back into a world full of the supernatural, much danger but even more fun, to ransom back the daughter of a former comrade. But there‘s always risk in wanting to become a legend.

Lucky No13 in my #BirthdayHaul is this high fantasy cozy about a retired barbarian Orc who packs up her sword to open a coffee shop. But will her past ruin her dreams of a fresh start pulling shots of expresso instead of pulling off heads? This sounds fabulous, like D&D with cappuccino & muffins.☕️

Laughterhp Oh I love that cover!! 12mo

No12 of my #BirthdayHaul(a couple more I promise!)is the sequel to The Left-Handed Booksellers of London. Trouble is brewing in the city of Bath, of the mythical sort. But it‘s not from the Sulis Minerva, the entity that lives in the old hot spring, it‘s the discovery of a sorcerous map that leads left-handed bookseller Merlin into danger. A rescue is attempted by his sister, right-handed bookseller Vivian,that leads them all to a parallel world.

Larkken How does this series compare to Sabriel? I‘ve been curious to pick it up… 12mo
Bookishlie Oooooo just got this from the library! 12mo

Bk11 from my #BirthdayHaul(I‘m almost done I promise!)is the latest in the Special Edition hardcovers that are being released. A collection of some of her short stories, this one features all her detectives, Poirot, Marple, Tommy & Tuppence & even Parker Pyne I think. I love the cover, it fits the theme perfectly.🌸🌼🌸🌼

Texreader Lovely cover!! 12mo

BarbaraBB Suchan awesome and extensive #birthdayhaul 🥰 12mo
Lizpixie @Texreader @jlhammar they‘ve released one for each season with the same cover but themed for each. Autumn Chills will be the last one released in August I think. 12mo
Lizpixie @LeahBergen I have all the special editions released so far except for two which I have on back order. I‘ve also preordered the next four on Waterstones.com They still have them on preorder if you want them. It‘s the Autumn Chills one, Five Little Pigs, Dead Man‘s Folly & Hallowe‘en Party. The last one, Witness For The Prosecution isn‘t available for order yet. 12mo
Lizpixie @BarbaraBB I know, it‘s the best one I‘ve ever had🙌I think they felt sorry for me coz I was so sick. I‘ll take pity books any day!📚📚📚📚 12mo
LeahBergen Ohhh! I was wondering what the Autumn book was going to be for this set! I‘m so excited! 👏👏 12mo

No10 in my #BirthdayHaul (I really did well this year, I think they felt sorry for me but I‘ll take it!😊)is this edition with a beautiful cover. This sounds like a lovely read, full of just delight really. A professor who‘s not great with people travels north to study Fae culture, and finds friendship, love & magic.

CBee I love the cover 😊 12mo
Bookishlie I‘m reading this too! Just got it from the library. My cover is different then yours though. 12mo

Birnam Wood | Eleanor Catton
post image

In 9th position from my #BirthdayHaul is a lovely signed edition of Birman Wood. It‘s billed as a part psychological thriller/part satire, so it‘s a bit hard to pin down. Birman Wood is a guerrilla gardening group founded by Mira Bunting, their objective is bringing forgotten & neglected land back to life. When a landslide gives them an opportunity for a large scale project, they find themselves competing with an American billionaire for the land.

BarbaraBB I just started this one! 12mo
MrsMalaprop Lovely 🥰. It‘s my book club read this month. I‘m yet to start it though @BarbaraBB 12mo
LeahBergen Ooo, pretty! 👀 12mo
Jeg Even though I'm not in the bookclub anymore I got a copy to read. Looking forward to reading it. @MrsMalaprop 12mo
BarbaraBB @MrsMalaprop I just finished it. It‘s so good. I hope you are enjoying it as well @Lizpixie 💕 12mo

Don't Fear the Reaper | Stephen Graham Jones

Up in 8th position from my #BirthdayHaul is the sequel to My Heart Is A Chainsaw. I loved every bloody, brutal minute of that so here‘s hoping this one is just as cynical, sarcastic & bloody as that! Jade has just been released from prison after her conviction is overturned and returns to Proofrock. But serial killer Dark Mill South escapes during a prison transfer & uses Indian Lake as his new hunting ground.🔪

Clwojick Yassssss! Can‘t wait to read this one! 12mo
