Going Crazy in a Book Shop Reloaded – Please Vote for your Favorite!

I went to my favorite book shop last weekend just to find out out they were closing down soon. This makes me so sad!!! The good thing though was, that every single book in the shop was on sale. So my parents bought me like a thousand and gazillion new reads.

This came just in time for my 3 months summer break. Loads of time for reading, right?

Now it is your turn, which books would you like me to write a review about? Please vote!

  1. Oscar,
    da hast du ja eine großartige Buecherauswahl getroffen & kannst auf viele neue, inspirierende und einzigartige Fantasiereisen gehen! Bei solch interessanter Literatur, fällt es super schwer, die Bücher zu bewerten. Viel Erfolg beim Lesen & Erlebten deiner neuen Bücher – ich bin schon sehr gespannt auf deine Zusammenfassungen, sogenannte “Blinks” , die nur rund 15 Minuten in Anspruch nehmen sollen (lieben Gruß von deiner Deutsch Lehrerin:)
    Super toll, Oscar! Oder: wie immer TOLL!
