Oops, forgot to post this one! I read it during #midyearrush and I have to say, a lot of these #shortstories really hit you in the feels. They're short but tell SO MUCH. They are also very sad, telling the struggles Latina women go through in white communities, in their own, and usually at the hands of men. That said, the stories also feel very hopeful. Many potential triggers like abortion, abuse, sexuality, etc #fiction

Wow! I finished not only the above books. I also: finished ‘The Guardians‘ (forgot to add it to my collage🤦🏻‍♀️) & 2 random reads on my e-reader; Started both a new audiobook & my June #BookSpin 📚🎧

Thanks so much @Clwojick @Sace 🥰❤️

Just checked my totals for the #MidYearRush Readathon that finished yesterday, I met all four goals and altogether during the 15 days I read for a total of 93 hrs 14 mins and finished 12 books.

Final update for the #MidyearRush!! I definitely stayed up past my bedtime in order to achieve my 5000pg goal, but I am very proud of myself!! I've tried several readathons, and this is the first time that I felt like I found the balance between challenging and doable! I finished 17 books and got caught up on several challenges, so I say this readathon was a success!! Thank you so much for hosting @Clwojick !!!

I‘m calling it at 3.5 books for #midyearrush since I‘m not as far along in my next read as I‘d thought I‘d be by now. It will disappear from Libby tomorrow. Oops!

Meanwhile, the tagged book took an unexpected turn at the halfway mark that seemed a good place to pause. I‘m not crazy about the audiobook narrator, but it‘s not so annoying that I can‘t finish.

These are the books I finished during #MidYearRush Readathon

Overview of Goals

1 ✔️Read 5114 / 5026 Pages

2. ✔️ Read 12/11 Books

3. ✔️ Read 4 / 4 #NordicNoir Books

4. ✔️ Finished the Joona Linna Series

That was fun. Now what do I do with myself ?!? 🤷‍♂️

This book just didn‘t do it for me and can‘t decide if it was the narrator or the book. Rarely do I pan a book but never really felt engaged in the story and actually quite bored by it. I do feel it could have been written in a better way. However don‘t let this put you off it may just be me or a book you need to physically read and not do by audiobook. Some just don‘t work in that format.
