I am Bek (they/them) and these are all of the books I got in the month of August. I did lots of used book shopping, a little bit of in-store shopping, and received an ARC. Some was in preparation for topical TBRs and a spooky buddy read others were impulse buys.
This is absolutely not sponsored but I really have had nothing but great experiences with BetterWorldBooks: betterworldbooks.com
