giphy.gif

June wasn’t my best month for reading. I had a lot going on between work and family life and I’ve just been so tired this month. Which unfortunately means I’m falling pretty far behind schedule, I will have a lot of 2017 releases to catch up on later this year in addition to my 2016 ones I missed. So anyways, here is my progress for the month of May!

Monthly Stats:
# books read this month: 5
# pages read this month: 1,904
# books read year-to-date: 53
# pages read year-to-date: 15,577

Favorite Books I Read:

The End of Temperance Dare by Wendy Webb – 4.5 stars

Other Posts this month:

Say Yes to the Scot RELEASE BLITZ!!

Status of 2017 Reading Challenges:

  1. Finish 2016 ARC’s from NetGalley that I missed – Haven’t read any since last month so still have 27 to go
  2. Participate in 2 reading challenges – During May I participated in the Bout of Books challenge. Next one is scheduled for August
  3. Other goals:
    1. Write shorter reviews – I think I’m doing better at this, this past month I was able to get out a few shorter ones
    2. Continue establishing relationships – I think I’m doing it, we’ll see how it goes I guess!

Next Month TBR List:

My rollover list from prior months was getting too long so this list is  refreshed version! I didn’t get through all the TBR on last month’s list, I’m just realizing that catching up on the 13 books I missed may not be realistic LOL! This is just my base list, I’m hoping to get through a lot more than this but I go through the decisions on a week by week basis.

-Say Yes to the Scot by Various authors (half-way through this one now)
-Storming the Castle by Arianna Hart
-The Duke of Defiance by Darcy Burke
-I Have Never by Camilla Isley
-Together by Linda Lael Miller
-Duke with Benefits by Manda Collins
-Watch Me Disappear by Janelle Brown
-Hello Sunshine by Laura Dave

 

Happy reading everyone and Happy 4th of July weekend!!
