Have a great weekend and happy reading, everyone! ♥
That mug is absolutely perfect! I love using gift cards after the holidays. There is something so satisfying about shopping for free. I hope that you enjoy The Couple Next Door. It was one of my favourites. 🙂
I'm glad at least one person in my family remembered I love reading. lol xD The Couple Next Door is my next read!
I love that mug, so cute!!
The Taster looks really good, enjoy all your new books!
I'm super excited for The Taster!!
Oh I love the booklover mug. Is it on amazon? ?
Enjoy your books and have a wonderful reading weekend. ?❤️
I have no idea. I got it at a bookstore but you can always try searching "booklover mug" on Amazon? 😀
Wow, amazing haul Stephanie. I hope you enjoy all of your books. I want to ask about freebies. Do these means that they are free for Kindle or anything? I really want to read that Taj Mahal book. After all, it belongs to my country and I would love to read more history of it 🙂
My STS: http://flippingthruthepages.com/2018/01/stacking-shelves-15/
Yes, when I got them they were free Kindle books. Actually Hourly History has 2 free books every friday that I signed up to receive emails from. I'm excited to read the Taj Mahal book!
I enjoyed The Couple Next Door and I love your book lover mug. I'm curious about your Hourly History books too, so I'm going to check them out.
Love that mug, Stephanie! I'm looking forward to reading Before I Let Go! Fab haul.
THE MUG IS SO CUTE! I love the minimalist design. <3 Also really hope you enjoy Sea Witch! It's one of my most anticipated books of the year, so I hope it doesn't disappoint either of us. Awesome haul, and happy reading, Stephanie! <3

Cursed City looks and sounds awesome – I'm adding it to my wishlist. You grabbed some great looking freebies and reviews books.
I wouldn't be able to resist the mug either. I'm looking forward to reading The Taster, I've read The Magdalen Girls by the same author and enjoyed it.
Enjoy your reads and have a wonderful day.
Great mug to go with your new books. Enjoy a cuppa with your latest haul 😉
That mug is super cute 🙂 and it's cool you got Seraphina! I must check out The Taster. Have a great week 🙂
Oh man! I completely forgot to add Sea Witch to my haul. I cannot waaaaait to read that book and am so excited to see it in Edelweiss. ? Happy reading, Stephanie!
Have a wonderful weekend. =)
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
I love that mug!!
I absolutely love your book lover mug! I too just downloaded SEA WITCH from edelweiss, and I cannot wait to read it! Happy weekend
Rachel @ A Perfection Called Books
I mean, let's be honest, that mug should be on all our shelves 😉
Also, I like the sound of the books you listed, Sea Witch in particular!
Nice haul and love that mug!!!
Sea Witch is really intriguing me, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on it!
I ADORE THAT MUG.
Finally! We share another book in common. Serafina and the Black Cloak by Robert Beatty is such an endearing middle grade book. Book 2 is better, and I still have book 3 waiting for me on my shelf. I'm gonna do one of your sighs. =)
Sea Witches is one I really want to read! Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. I'm also really appreciating all the historical love here 😉
It'll be hard to find a STS post of mine without any historical books on it. xD
