January TBR

Here's a quick book haul of all the books I bought in January. 

Physical books

-The Looking Glass Wars, Seeing Redd, and Archenemy by Frank Beldor

-City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare

-The Serpent's Throne by Rick Riordan

Ebooks

-Chris Powell's Choose More, Lose More

-The Assassin's Curse by Cassandra Rose Clarke 

-The Madman's Daughter by Margaret Sheperd

I also found these awesome things called samplers, which are free ebooks put out by publishers containing a sneak peek of several new and upcoming releases. I can't' decide if it's a great idea or a terrible one. Either I'll knock a few books off of my TBR shelf after reading the first chapter and deciding it isn't my jam, or I'll add a bazillion books to my TBR because I decide they all are amazing and I need to read them ALL. 

There are a lot of them on Amazon, for all different genres, but these are the ones I got.
