Based on where I am in my current reads, I think it‘s safe to say I won‘t finish anything else this month. That being said, I finished 16 and completed my Goodreads goal, so there‘s that. I LOVED Titanium Noir. It‘s going to be tough to beat for favorite book of the year. There were a couple of disappointments, but also some great surprises. Overall, a good birthday month of reading. #maystats #maywrapup

AlaMich Glad to hear you liked Titanium Noir! I loved Angelmaker and Noir sounds good too. 2y
RamsFan1963 Titanium Noir sounds like a hoot. I've already put it on hold from the library through Libby. 2y

#MayTBR Two books carried over from April, LMPBC, a couple of NetGalley ARCs, one miscellaneous book, a horror novel that comes so highly recommended that I don‘t want to wait, a book recommended by a bookseller that needs to be bumped up my TBR, and one of my most anticipated new releases: PUPPETS!!!!! Seriously, y‘all. It‘s so hard to make myself finish what I‘m currently reading because all I want to do is read In the Lives of Puppets.

I finished seven books in May. I only got halfway through the Seeker, but I didn‘t feel like changing the collage again! (It‘s interesting but tense. I‘ll try to read a chapter here and there around my other reading.)

Except for Of Women and Salt, which I found depressing and strangely written (book club mostly agreed), I enjoyed everything I read. Of course the book about a cat was my favorite.

This last week was not a good reading time for me. On Tuesday I was told that the Office Depot I have been working at for the last 4 1/2 years is closing in July. Hopefully I'll get back into the reading groove with this readathon.
Goals:
Finish Star Trek - Myriad Universes: Echoes & Refractions
Start and Finish A Rebel in Auschwitz
Start and Finish Ways and Means
Start The Accidental President

#MarvellousMay @Andrew65

Ruthiella Bummer about the closing. Will you be able to move to another store? 3y
RamsFan1963 @Ruthiella I haven't decided yet, things are still up in the air. 3y
Leftcoastzen Oh man ! I‘m so sorry! I had a position where all the stores in the chain closed . It was more than a job , I really liked all the coworkers & managers.😔 3y

RamsFan1963 @Leftcoastzen Yeah that's the part that's going to hurt most, because I've worked with a core group of people for almost 5 years, I think of them as friends not just coworkers. I hope we can keep in touch, but just like when you leave high school, you plan to be friends forever but you eventually drift apart. 3y
Andrew65 Good luck, and thanks for playing along 😊 Sorry to hear about the job front, sending best wishes. 3y
Bookwormjillk Sorry to hear about your store. That‘s no good. 3y
ShelleyBooksie So sorry to hear about your store! 3y

Alright, so here‘s my #bookspinbingo board for May! I made it a little more colorful since it‘s my birthday month and I‘m trying to encourage myself to get at least one bingo 🤣. I have a lot of confidence this month! I‘m already almost done with both Hamnet and Ready Player 2 and it won‘t take me long to complete Inferno. Let‘s go!!!

Michael_Gee Happy birthday month! 4y
candc320 Thank you, @GhostStories !! 4y
