Last month I shared a little book haul from the charity shop with you so I thought I would do the same again. I love browsing through the bookshelves of my local charity shops, there are always some real bargains to be had. Reading can become an expensive hobby, there are so many books I want to read and the temptation to spend is huge. By buying books second-hand I can happily stay within a budget and fill my shelves for a fraction of the cost.

Of course I want to support the authors so I allow myself two new purchases a month too.

This month I only found two books for myself, I don’t mind though as one of the books was high on my wish-list. I also found four books for the kids which included a nostalgic read from my own childhood.

The Gracekeepers by Kirsty Logan has been top of my wish list for a while and it didn’t disappoint. I picked it up for an absolute bargain price of £1.40.

I’m trying to read different styles of books this year so was very excited when I spotted One by Sarah Crossan for just 90p. The book is written in free verse and tells the story of seven months in the life of conjoined twins.

Daisy loves the Rainbow Magic stories and has a lovely collection on her shelf already. I always pick these books up when I spot them and luckily she didn’t already have these two.

The Worst Witch by Jill Murphy was one of the very first chapter books I read as a child. I can’t wait for Daisy and Jake to meet Mildred Hubble. I paid just 50p for this trip down memory lane.

Julia Donaldson is one of our favourite children’s authors so I was delighted to spot Superworm to add to our collection. I paid 60p which is an absolute bargain.
