Missed out on two reads this month but I‘m hoping I‘ll get to them next month! May was a fabulous reading month! And I realized I haven‘t even reviewed all of these here so I‘ll need to catch up. I‘d recommend all of these titles! #bookspinbingo Several bingos!
Here‘s how many books I read in May. This month, I focused on reading books I borrowed from #kindleunlimited and #primereading. I had a free 3 month trial of #kindleunlimited. I didn‘t read as many books as I wanted to read from #kindleunlimited because I was worried that I was going to forget to cancel my free trial. I haven‘t decided if I want to have a subscription to KU yet. I don‘t know if it‘s better than #primereading or not.
Latest #bookhaul includes the tagged that I picked up at a Little Free Library yesterday while dropping off a couple books. The rest are ones that *somehow* made their way into my cart when I was purchasing a book for the #litsyrecipeswap. Can‘t imagine how that happened 😆
Plus a nice warm weather nightgown and robe because what else am I going to wear while reading 📖
This is incredibly overdue, but I've been kind of "meh" with posting to various social media things. I've been reading...more slowly than normal...but not so much with the online engaging. May was a pretty good month. Revisited some old friends, picked back up a favorite genre, and spent some time with a few debuts.
Now to get caught up posting the things I've read so fast in June...

I didn't get all the way through my #TBR but I got a lot of unread books off my shelf and I'm happy with that.
Here's hoping #readyoursign keeps this going into June

#maywrapup
tfw you're getting rid of a few books. 😭
My May plans. The top 3 are in progress, the bottom 5 are next. #maytbr #tbr #readinglist
pickWayne Kovok survives a plane crash, but suffers a throat injury that leaves him without a voice. This is a serious blow, since he's used to spouting off random facts to fill up the awkward silences in his life. By not talking, he learns to listen, observe, & communicate more effectively. This is also a story about dealing with grief.
The writing is sometimes gimmicky ("true story") but still smart & enjoyable. I laughed, cried, & learned.
"That's all she wants to watch sometimes. Movies where people use fake British accents and run through the fields and yell, 'Oh, I think I'll run through this field in search of a husband!'"
Happy St. Joseph's Day!
"I hoped I hadn't perspired too much during the run. I had precalculated the amount of Axe body spray I needed to use to make me smell acceptable by the time Sandy arrived. Two and a half sprays. That's the right amount. Anything more overpowers the bus. You learn this in sixth grade when a mean eighth-grade girl says, 'You smell like you want to be alone.' True story."
pickMeet Wayne Kovok: plane crash survivor, descendant of war heroes, random trivia expert, and above all, just a kid trying to find his voice--literally and figuratively. I've been a Karen Harrington fan since her first MG debut, Sure Signs of Crazy, and her third book is 3 for 3 in awesomeness!
