July #ReadingRoundup 12 📖

One Nonfiction, and it might have been my fav of the month, a very American look at a variety of topics all based around basketball - I am not a fan of the sport, but still found this book fascinating, his writing is fantastic, interesting, and entertaining.

Had some good balance - Blindness, Let Us Descend, The Absolutist, and Julia were all pretty dark, but Yinka, Less, and Starter Villian were lighter and more fun.

Not a great reading month, was June 😭😭. I think the few I did read, however, were great ones. I'm not even sure which of these was my favorite, though RAZORBLADE TEARS was technically a #dnf.

Onward to a better reading month!

June #readingroundup

Lie with me was my favorite read of the month, but I did also enjoy Ministry of Time, The Darkness Outside Us, and Margo's Got Money Trouble!

It was an okay reading month.

March Reads

I read 5 of the #WomensPrize fiction long lists and 2 of the Nonfiction longlist

My #BookedInTime book Princes of Ireland was 775 pages so that slowed me down a bit.

I read 2 books for the #TransRightReadathon

My favorite read of the month is tagged.
