MBiC is a fortnightly (*ahem*) book haul feature inspired by Kristi (The Story Siren) and Alea (Pop Culture Junkie). I love looking at book covers, and especially their colours, and that is where the idea to feature my new arrivals by their spines in accordance to their shade comes from.

Happy Mother's Day! <3
All you mums in the world do so much for your families.
We love you, we appreciate you--even if we don't express it often enough!
I said in my last book haul a few weeks ago that I had more to show. And I'm finally finished with class for this semester so I had time to gather up all my new books to show for you all. :)
I'm so excited to read all of these books! Any particular ones you want me to bump up the TBR?

For Review
Thanks to...
Neither of these titles were on my radar prior to receiving a review copy but I'm so glad I was sent these. They both sound great!
If You Find Me sounds like a good winter read, so I've pushed that to my June reading list. :) I'm going to try and read
The Disgrace of Kitty Grey this month, but no promises!
Bought
There has been an endless stream of praise surrounding
Code Name Verity. Been anticipating this new paperback release. The presentation is just lovely. And
Burning For Revenge, the fifth book in the Tomorrow series by John Marsden. Which I'll definitely be reading soon.

Classics or older books. Already read the first book in the Oz series and I loved it. I'm
really curious about
Bounjour Tristesse and
The Fountain Overflows--both coming of age stories. The first is French (obviously), the other British. A lot of these were bought through AllBooks4Less ($5!) and Booktopia (free shipping deals). And they're all
gorgeous!
Q: Have you ever reread your favourite childhood books now that you're older? How was it?
Happy reading!
