Oh my goodness October was a rough month for my bookshelves. Their job has gotten way harder. As they say, though, “No Pain, No Gain”. The pain my wallet and bookshelves are now feeling has led to my gain (all the pretties). I’ll go more in-depth for a few of the books but since it’s such an extensive list most of it will just be short nods to my new lovelies.
* A Thousand Nights by E.K. Johnston (North American edition)
I picked this up at the launch event in Toronto and got it signed/personalized!

Now for pretty pictures!! I also got:
Trial by Fire and Firewalker (UK editions because prettyyy)
A Thousand Nights (UK edition…because painfully pretty)
Just look at all the details on this book! It is absolutely beautiful. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t occasionally stroke it lovingly.
And last but certainly not least Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone Illustrated Edition
This book is beyond words. If you grew up with Harry Potter and love it dearly you need this book. It’s gorgeous. I can’t wait to start my series reread with it!!
What new books did you pick up this month? Any here that I need to bump up my TBR immediately? Let me know what you think! 🙂
Seeing everyone owning a copy of the illustrated Harry Potter book, I’m so tempted to get my own.

I wish it wasn’t so expensive here. Is it worth over 100 bucks? I… don’t know.
