November/Birthday Book Haul, Part 1: IIBF 2014 & Gramedia Sale


Wazzap wazzap ma peeps! So as you guys can see from the title of this post I'm going to be writing about my November Book Haul, which is also my Birthday Book Haul!! So my birthday was last Thursday on November 20, 2014 and it's my 20th birthday (I still feel like I'm 17 years old on the inside though...) I have bought a SHITLOAD of books this month, so I'm going to be dividing my book haul into two parts so my post doesn't get very long and boring....

In this book haul, you will find my purchases from the recent IIBF (Indonesia International Book Fair) 2014 and also from a Gramedia Bookstore Sale from Puri Indah Mall. Alright then, here are the books!!

The first four books I bought from IIBF 2014. Three of them are from Dhita Books, a secondhand english bookstand and one of them is from Periplus. I literally ran to this stand when I saw TLOS: The Enchantress Returns because I loved the first one and have been dying to read the second one. And then when I was rummaging through pile of books inside the stand I found A Storm of Swords, which of course has to come with me. Also I bought Wuthering Heights because I've been meaning to read more classics. I bought Wake from Periplus because of the cover and it's the first book in a series so it got me curious.

The next four books are also from Periplus's stand at IIBF 2014. These are four unorganized books of the Pretty Little Liars series. I am trying to collect all of the books in the series because I really love the TV series so I wanna know if the books are better (this is going to be hard because there are a LOT of books in this series).

These four books are the last books that I bought at IIBF 2014, they're all from different book stands. Blood Read Road was from Periplus and it had been on my wish list for a while now so I decided to buy it. Anya's Ghost (my review) was from a children books stand (I forgot the name) it was super cheap and was recommended by Jesse @ jessethereader. The last two books are also from Dhita Books, I bought Tuesdays with Morrie because I wanna try reading a Mitch Albom book and of course I bought Pride and Prejudice because I'm trying to read more classics.

The last three books of this haul was from a Gramedia Sale in Puri Indah Mall. After messing up the sale pile in there I found these beauties and they only cost Rp 10,000 - Rp 20,000 and two of them is my most wanted books, Graceling and Smile (THIS IS A GRAPHIC NOVEL!).

That's all for the first part of this birthday book haul extravaganza! Will see you guys on the next part:)
