May reading #wrapup

Favorites:
Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng &
Can‘t Get Enough (tagged) which is book 3 in the Skyland series. I just love this series so much. Kennedy Ryan gives us strong, very real women who take no shit and find partners who love them for the strong women they are without fear. 🥰

Also read:
Madam by Cari Lynn & Kellie Martin for #roll100
Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs for my #mercyreread
Both 4⭐️

Worst read ⬇️⬇️

MeganAnn Worst was Abducting Abby by S.E. Smith. Poorly written, the sexy scenes were cringey & the plot was all over the place. My mom wanted my opinion. She saw a bunch of good reviews online & others talking about how good it was… then couldn‘t believe how bad the writing was. She wanted to know if I felt the same (I do). To get the bad taste out of my brain I did a reread of Ice Planet Barbarians then gave it her as a well written example of the genre

Abducting Abby: Dragon Lords of Valdier Book 1

Sandstorm | James Rollins

May #wrapup

Total read = 10
7 audio (2 novellas)
3 print

I returned to several series I had paused on and started a couple of new ones. My pick for May is Sandstorm, because it reminded me that I can get through a #chunkster. I gobbled up the almost 600 pages while on vacation.

TheBookHippie 🎉 chunksters 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 5d

Reggie Where‘d you go for vacation? 5d

Hollywood's Eve: Eve Babitz and the Secret History of L.A. | Lili Anolik

May #wrapup

A few good ones this month. James was well done and I loved learning more about Eve. Boots on The Ground was also good, I liked reading about veteran‘s experiences and it gave good insight.

The Great Deceiver | Elly Griffiths

I‘m not sure what all happened this month that I only finished four books, but in any case the tagged book was my favorite. #wrapup

Bookwormjillk I think there was some sort of warp in time/space that made the month go too fast 2w

Having hubby home cuts into reading time. Finished my two buddy reads and progress was made on my audio and ebook but zero progress on my other 2 print books.

Thanks for hosting @TheSpineView

Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees | Patrick Horvath

April #wrapup

6 read + 3 DNF:
4 audiobooks
1 children‘s book
2 graphic novels
2 print

My pick for April is the tagged, because I need more murderous bears and gory graphic novels in my life.

Reggie I think the tagged was talked about on Books in the Freezer. It sounded good. 1mo

Bookzombie @Reggie I think that is where I heard about it. It‘s funny because I don‘t listen consistently to the podcast because of how it blows up my TBR. 1mo

April #WrapUp😮‍💨 I‘ve been reading less and less as the year goes on. Distracted, but also finding other comfort activities that require less brain work. I have been logging my daily pages read to try to read every day and I do love the Story Graph‘s line graph.

Jari-chan At least you seem to have enjoyed the books you've read, that's all that matters 🤗 1mo

DogMomIrene @Jari-chan That‘s true! I‘m pretty good at picking out books I know I‘ll enjoy. 1mo

Jari-chan @DogMomIrene That's great to hear! Keep doing that 😁 1mo
