Maybe I just wasn't in the right mindset for this right now but this took me way to long to read and I don't think I can tell you one thing that happened.

There is just something about King that must scream "summer reads" to me because for the last 10ish years (with the exception of 2020 & 2023) I have read at least 1 (usually more) book of his somewhere between June & August. I am sure books of his were read other months those years as well.
Now, I did read 4 of his books in 2020 & 4 again in 2023 they just didn't make the summer months cut.
Current Read: the Sun Dog
Never Flinch up next
I did it!! I think this is the first month I actually read all (well almost, I plan to finish The Last Animal tonight) #readyourkindle #readyourebooks picks.
Side note: I also finished the Seasonal Challenge on Goodreads (which I had forgotten about until last week & still needed 4 achievements) & the Spring Kindle Challenge.
Summer Break is always good for my reading goals.
Ummm...one of these books doesn't belong here?! ???
I can not, for the life of me, figure out why this shows up when I look up Stephen King on my "books I've read" section of Goodreads.
I have always been fascinated by ancient Egypt & it's mythology and when I saw that this book was heavily inspired by/based on this I knew I had to pick this book up (plus just look at it 😍).
I was not disappointed. I devoured this book and after that ending....I need book 2 ASAP!!!

I forgot to post my official list but here are my options for this month's challenge. I am feeling pretty good about the possibility of me actually reading all for this month but I guess only time will tell.
Would that be a Charley Davidson reference I spy 🤔
I love when authors include little easter eggs of their other other works.
One of these days I will finally finish this dang puzzle until then at least it is a great excuse to listen to my audiobook 🤔😜
My May TBR
It may be slightly ambitious (especially with how crazy things will get with the school year winding down) but I know a few of these should be quick reads so here's hoping 🤞

3 book club books
4 new releases
3 #readyourebooks #readyourtbr
2 stephen king back list
1 random pick
Not to shabby when it comes to this years reading goals.
My sister bought us tickets for Christmas/our birthday and this past weekend we finally had our twin date to go. It did not disappoint. My sister didn't read the stage play years ago like I did so she had no idea going in what was going to happen. We had a blast.
Life has been hectic lately but it is nice to finally be able to dive into a book again and just escape for awhile.
I don't have to work today so my only plans today are to see how far I can get on this. Probably one of my most anticipated books this year so fingers crossed it doesn't disappoint.
Working on a new display at work and thought this would be funny. Of course I had to include a couple of my favorites 🤷♀️😜
My ambitious January TBR
Top left are books for book clubs I am in (minus 1 which hasn't picked one yet)
Top right are the picks for my reading challenge (2 ebooks, 2 physical)
Bottom row are new releases I am hoping to dive into.
#readyourkindle #readyourebooks #readyourtbr
My main goal for 2025 is to not only continue to chip away at my back log of unread ebooks but to also tackle my back log on my physical TBR. I am continuing the #readyourkindle #readyourebooks challenge but adding in physical books as well this time. Fingers crossed I stick to it.
Not to shabby. Could've been better if life hadn't made me slightly slumpy end of Nov-mid Dec but I can't complain.
Tried to make a dent this year in my backlist of ebooks. Out of the 44 books I picked for my #readyourebooks #readyourkindle challenge (I started in Feb) I finished with 30 read & 14 unread. Not to bad. Thinking I may do a mash up of this with my physical TBR shelf for 2025.
I have been falling behind on my King reads (I get easily distracted by all the shiny new books) but I figured now was the perfect time to dive back in.
I haven't really been in the Christmas spirit lately and these last 2 weeks at work have been really rough. I needed a little retail therapy to help cheer me up.
#readyourkindle #readyourebooks @CBee
I may have heavily padded my TBR list with xmas books so it is nice to see one fantasy book snuck it's way in.
It's here & just in time for my bookclub reread. Considered one of Time Magazine's 100 best fantasy books OF ALL TIME & definitely one of my favorites from the last several years. I can't wait to dive into this illustrated edition. Be warned, the book itself is definitely not for the faint of heart.
1 is technically a reread (I cheated & but book club books on my list since I do own them digitally) & 1 I put on there solely in hopes that I could finally remove it from my kindle. Definitely an odd mix this month. 🤔
#readyourkindle #readyourebooks @CBee
For November I am introducing my fantasy book club to Hadrian & Royce and I won't lie I am pretty nervous. I love these characters so much and some of the people in my book club are pretty critical. 😬🤞
My reading has reached a new level of lazy but I don't regret it at all 😜😂
