Let a whole lotta’ books come to me! Or how I got myself busy for the next months

It all started when I noticed that The Sentence by Louise Erdrich was (finally!) available in Romania as paperback. And then I thought … if I order a book, why not put together a bigger order, to refresh my shelves and have my Spring fully BOOKed? 😉

The Sentence by Louise Erdrich – this was the spark! I know it’s a ghost story and it was shortlisted for Women’s Prize for Fiction 2022. It involves a bookseller, a lot of wittiness … and it’s supposed to be super funny as well!

The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow – this book reminded me of The Familiars by Stacey Halls (my review), a book I loved reading! It’s about witches, and I’ve never read anything by its author … so double-win!

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid – one of the books I heard so much about from my friends! It is the fiction story of a Hollywood icon, Mrs Hugo, who is revealing the truth about her scandalous life.

The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida by Shehan Karunatilaka – the winner of the 2022 Booker Prize. It tells the story of a war photographer from Sri Lanka who dies and wakes up in a “celestial visa office”. Already sounds intriguing, doesn’t it?!

Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés – this was more of an impulse acquisition; it is about the inner power of women, about magic and feminine power. As far as I know, it is a collection of stories combined with psychological aspects of womanhood.

To Paradise by Hanya Yanagihara – one of the books I am super super excited about! I loved reading Yanagihara’s other books, A Little Life (my review) and People in the Trees, so I can only have high expectations from her latest release. It is built on a “what-if scenario”, an alternate version of 1800s America – reminds me of Blonde Roots by Bernandine Evaristo (my review).

Do you also start from buying “just one book” and end up with buying many more?
