I saw this post on Des’ blog and I thought that it was an amazing idea to share with you what books I was approved for on Netgalley on a weekly basis. For those of you who are regular readers of my website, you will know that I request A LOT of books off of NetGalley. I just can’t help myself. I see a pretty cover and BAM. I suddenly have 25 books that need reviewing.
Anyway, this week I was approved for these amazing bunch of books! …

I actually didn’t buy that many books this month! It’s a miracle! Most of these were actually from the charity bookstore that I work at, so they were only £1.50 each which is brillant.

I actually didn’t buy that many books this month! It’s a miracle! Most of these are pre-orders as well, so it’s not like I also went to the bookstore and spontaneously bought loads of book (but I did spontaneously buy a few! I couldn’t resist!)
Also, because I have to go back to university in September, I had to buy quite a few books for my courses. I’m studying science fiction and novel writing, but all of the books that I had to buy were for my science fiction class. I HAVE A LOT OF UNI BOOKS TO READ BEFORE I GO BACK AND IT’S SO STRESSFUL!
Anyway! Let’s get on with the haul… …
I’m actually writing this two weeks after YALC has finished… It took me so long to do this blog post, from taking the pictures, to including the links! Anyway, as the title suggests, this post shows you all of the things that I got whilst I was at YALC in London this year. I didn’t actually BUY a lot. Most of the things that you can see in this post are free things that I managed to pick up whilst I was there.
So without any further ado, let’s get on with the haul!
P.S I also have blog posts detailing what I did on each day at YALC! (Day one, day two, day three, and day four, and there’s also my review of YALC) …
Wow, okay so YALC has just happened… It’s been nearly 2 weeks since I came back from YALC, and after seeing so much traffic for my daily YALC posts, I decided to write an opinions piece on it. I feel like this is such an important thing to do, because people need to raise awareness of the good things and the bad, so that the Showmasters can decide which things need improving for next year.
I do have a lot of thoughts on YALC, both positive and negative and I’m going to try and explain the negative as best as I can. Do remember, this year was my first year at YALC, so I don’t have anything to compare it to, other than what my friends have said. …

HOWEVER!
I did also go to YALC at the end of July, and OBVIOUSLY, I bought some books whilst I was there. But, the YALC haul was so big that I didn’t want to include it in my normal book hauls, so I made a separate post which you can read here.
Anyway, let’s get on with my June book haul!
It was the last day of YALC today and honestly, I AM SO SAD! I’ve met so many amazing people from Twitter and made some great friends that I can’t wait to see again. I know that YALC is a celebration of Young Adult literature, but it’s the people there and the friends that you make that really make the weekend what it is: BRILLIANT. …
Another day means another day of YALC, which consequently means another day OF BOOK SHOPPING! As expected, today was jam-packed with anything and everything. There were loads of big-name authors that were signing, there were amazing panels, and there were quite a few giveaways! Like I said: JAM-PACKED! …
