The Bookaholic strikes again it appears readers,
Yes the title is correct - I did have another splurge today. This time it was in my favourite local town (that I hadn't been to in 2 months) and there was a copious amount of irresistible deals awaiting my presence.
On that note, let's begin the book haul :
Sweet Valley High #88 - Love letters for sale by Francine Pascal 10p! in Saint Gemma's Hospice
A book from my favourite series (that is actually in my top 5 want to reads from the series) in my favourite town and in my favourite charity shop in the world for only 10p ! Sounds to good to be true but that's what happened to me Today.
This particular Saint Gemma's Hospice sells all it's teen fiction for 10p and it always seems to be selling some SVH so that's why it's my favourite charity shop. Contemplating reading this after I've completed my library books next week I'm that excited!

Premonitions (#1) by Jude Watson 10p in Saint Gemma's Hospice
Read this last June and remember loving it although it was partially disturbing. I only found out Today when I added this to my Goodreads shelves that it actually has a sequel so I hope to come across that during my thrifts.Do you want to know more about this book ?

Shine by Kate Maryon 10p in Saint Gemmas' Hospice
I've been wanting to read this since I finished Glitter (also by the author) ages ago but when I bought this the cover was different to the cover I had previously seen (for this same book) so I thought they were different books - I actually prefer the re-vamped cover designs to old ones.
Mizz magazine used it as their free gift in a Winter issue but I didn't want to fork out £2.50 for a magazine I didn't want when I knew I could get at the hospice (they've had 2 books that where previous gifts from the magazine before there).
It's only small so it should be more like a quick read and I'll probably read it this month or the next.

Gallagher Girls #1 - I'd tell you I love you , but then I'd have to kill you by Ally Carter 10p in Saint Gemma's Hospice
I've been waiting to find this book at a suitable price and you can't really get better than 10p. Coincidentally I saw books 2,3 and 4 afterwards (in a different shop) but was sceptical because I don't like to buy the rest of the books in a series without reading the first.
My friend read this series and thinks it's awesome so I decided to check it out although I've never read a book about spies before.It's pretty popular so hopefully it'll achieve my high expectations.
All the UK cover versions of the series are so much more beautiful and interesting than the US.

Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver £2 in British Heart Foundation
Whilst I was walking out of the shop I spotted this on the bottom shelf and couldn't believe I'd missed it during my thorough browsing.
Delirium,the authors popular series, has been produced into a TV series starring Emma Roberts so I really want to read her work so I can decide whether or not to tune in.
Before I Fall is her stand-a-lone novel and the concept is amazing so I'm scheduled to read this in June.

Cheerleaders 5 - All the way by Caroline B. Cooney 30p in Cancer Research UK
My intention when I entered this shop was to purchase the Sweet Valley Twins book I hadn't but last time (WHY DIDN'T I BUY IT ?) unfortunately though it was gone. The sight of this prevented me from having a break down.
It's got to be the cheesiest cover ever but it's by Caroline who's one of my favourite authors so her name guarantees greatness.

The Crush by Alex Shearer 50p on a Market Stall
Despite detesting this cover and never encountering this book before, I decided to pick it up because of the plot and the publisher (Bite) who've printed some really enjoyable novels.
Might read it this week.

Need (#1) by Carrie Jones £1.50 in Scope
Don't really know anything about this novel other than that the plot sounds interesting and the cover is beautiful. The other two books in the trilogy were in the shop as well but ,as I've previously mentioned, I only buy if I know I'll like.

Bumped (#1) by Megan McCafferty £1.50 in Scope
Someone had obviously donated some of their amazing YA collection today due to the amount of similar great finds. The plot sounds extremely unique and I've never read a dystopian before so hopefully this will set a high standard for the genre.

Everneath (#1) by Brodi Ashton £2 in Scope
I couldn't believe it when I saw this.
The cover is one of my favourites, The texture is so heavenly when it's petted it's better than stroking the fluffiest kitten and I really wish the competition to win the dress was still open because I would wear it everyday (I'd refuse to wear my school uniform even).

Watersong #1 - Wake by Amanda Hocking £1.99 in Oxfam
Never read anything about mermaids before but I adore the film Aquamarine (I've seen it like at least 500 times because my sister and I used to watch it every Friday for like a year) so if that's anything to go by this will be excellent.
