Cutting the Budget - April Failure

I decided to make this year all about the TBR and visiting Delighted Reader and her idea to keep track of her book shopping made me super giddy to do the same, so after some begging she created this awesome meme.

This week I've spent a lot and got even more books from NetGalley than I should, but most of them are for June or even July, so I have some time. Plus tuesday was the release of The King and I almost cried with the price, but I had to read it so my budget almost exploded. I read it, I loved it and can't wait for the next.

I got lucky and have 21.73 from March so most of my shopping spree was with that.
