September is always the busiest month for me, and this year was no exception. I had to finish my teaching placements, host a joint party with my sister for our birthdays, celebrate my actual birthday a week later, and hand in a tear-stained package of assignments. It was a hectic month, and so I took some time out here and there to buy some books. You know, because retail therapy is an actual thing, and it's even better when you're buying books!

Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins Sweet Peril by Wendy Higgins Sweet Reckoning by Wendy Higgins Sweet Temptation by Wendy Higgins |
I read the Sweet Trilogy over a year ago on my Kindle, and absolutely loved it, so when Sweet Temptation was released this month, I couldn't resist but to purchase the whole series in paperback. When it's a series I really enjoy, I don't mind having multiple copies :)

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank Dumplin' by Julie Murphy Landline by Rainbow Rowell The Messenger by Markus Zusak |
I purchased these books on my birthday, stopping off at the book shop on my way home from uni. I went into the store with the intention of picking up the newly-released Dumplin', but came away with an armful of extras!
And then finally a few extras that I couldn't resist purchasing. I'm really looking forward to continuing Saga, and I love that my collection of Jennifer E. Smith books are so bright and colourful!

I also received a few books as gifts for my birthday, which was completely unexpected yet oh so wonderful :)
I hope this month was a productive month for you too, whether it was buying books or reading them or finding the time to finish your assignments!
