I got an unexpected book delivery during lockdown, so I thought Id do a book haul!
A while ago, I ordered a few books by the German writer Thomas Mann from the Book Depository. Im delighted with my growing Vintage Classics collection, and cannot wait to get other classics from them.
In this book haul, I talk about why I bought these books and what I expect from them.
So, whether you are a Thomas Mann fan or not, watch my video to find out my thoughts on these beloved 20th-century world classics!

Heres my reading wrap-up for the month of March.
In this video, I talk about all the ten novels I read last month. There were some good books, even a few great ones, but also some disappointing reads.
In March, I also had to read a bunch of novels for round one of the BookTube Prize 2020. It was... an experience!
Stay tuned for my review of My Dark Vanessa toward the end of this video!
