It has been a long time since I hauled this many books in such a short period. However, for my 21st birthday, I decided to spoil myself and buy some of my most wished-for books from my never-ending list.
My birthday was a little over a month ago, and I wish I could have shown you earlier, but some of the books only arrived a little while ago. Without further ado, let us look at the 18 books I added to my collection for my birthday!
