December Wrap-up & Book Haul

07/01/2018

Hello hello,

I’m late with this as always. But I finally managed to take photos and sort everything out. Lucky for my bookshelf, I haven’t bought as many books as I did in November. I also read far less than in November. But oh well, I guess I’m okay with that… What did you read in December? Do you have a personal highlight?
