A friend just finished and loved this book, so I decided it would be my next read.😁

It looks like Book of the Month joined the sprayed edge romantasy world with the name Allurial Books. It works like BOTM, where you pick which book you want to add to the box. I'm trying it out and ordered A Forbidden Alchemy.

Delivery today of Owlcrate's quarterly romance box. It's so pretty!

I picked 5 books between July's Book of the Month and Aardvark book clubs.😍📚

June is already over!? Well, I finished 7 books. My two favorites were When the Tides Held the Moon and Sorcery and Small Magics.

I'm in be mood for a thriller, so I'm starting this one tonight.

Up next! Such a pretty cover.

Up next.🐀

#botm

Up next is the new Taylor Jenkins Reid. It's my first by her.

Starting Sorcery and Small Magics tonight. And it's another pretty FairyLoot naked hardcover.

This romance has the cutest edges.😍

My weekend read is the newest Emily Henry.😁

My nephew is obsessed with making things on their 3D printer. He gifted me yesterday with a book page holder he made.

Aardvark Book Club June books are here. The naked hardcover for The Starving Saints is so shiny.🤩

New sticker.

Started a mystery!🕵‍♂🕵️

This book was absolutely lovely. This is a historical fantasy romance that takes place in 1910s NYC. Benny, a Puerto Rican, is there trying to find himself, and in the process ends up helping a sideshow capture a merman. It's a beautiful story with wonderful illustrations throughout the book. Benny and Rio's relationship is so sweet.

😍😍😍😍

FairyLoot's first Epic Fantasy special edition.

I'm almost halfway into this book and adoring it. FYI - the book includes illustrations done by the author.

I'm adding these books to the library's collection this week.

Starting June with When the Tides Held the Moon.

9 books read in May. The Raven Scholar was my absolute favorite, but I also really enjoyed The Reappearance of Rachel Price and First Lie Wins.

A special edition and a signed copy! Aardvark, you are spoiling us. I picked two for June.

#aardvarkbookclub

My May FairyLoot Adult and Romantasy books are here. Another purple month, but they are both stunning.

I let the spin wheel pick my next read and it picked a thriller!

There's a trend on BookTok of people picking their next TBR book with a spin. I thought it a great idea since I usually have trouble deciding what to read after I finish a book. So created two TBR spins - one for my BOTM books and one for everything else.

The first Owlcrate Science Fiction special edition is here and it's gorgeous.🌱

I'm starting Iron & Embers. I guess this is a spin off from another series from the author that I didn't read. Hopefully that doesn't make the worldbuilding confusing.

Also, I love that the hardcover makes it look like a completely different book.

I'm working on this gloomy Saturday. My goal is to get this whole cart added to the collection. There are about 20 more non-fiction on the other side too.

Starting this romantic suspense today.

My evening read. Just starting it.

#aardvarkbookclub

Just started this Holly Jackson.

#botm

This will be one of my favorite reads of 2025. Couldn't put it down. I was expecting the fantasy and the mystery, but wasn't prepared for the humor and banter. It was just really well written and fun. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Next up is The Raven Scholar.

#bookmail

😍😍😍😍😍 So pretty!

I read two romances in a row, so I'm switching gears and starting this thriller.

I just worked six days in a row and I'm glad to have the next two days off. They will include reading this book.

Eight books read in April. Overall a good reading month for me.

May #botm are here! This month had three easy picks for me. And a pick from last month I hadn't picked up yet - Enchantra.

I ❤️ author India Holton's Instagram.

Weekend is almost over.😔

I haven't read a romance in April yet, so I decided to change that with this book. #currentlyreading

The trailer for Murderbot has me intrigued. So I'm giving the first book in the series a try.

Two pre-orders arrived from Barnes and Noble.😍 #bookmail

My FairyLoot edition of the new Olivie Blake is here! I've been excited to read this book and since I finished my last book last night, I'm starting this one now.

I'm starting Tilt tonight.

#aardvarkbookclub

I started this book last night. It's really good! Read longer than I should have.🥱

I finished my most recent book last night and my April Book of the Months showed up today, so I decided I will dig right in and start this book.

#botm

My co-worker who normally covers our books is gone on vacation this week, so I'm covering the books I cataloged. Discovered this under the cover of Gifted & Talented.😁

I ended up picking 5 books between April's Book of the Month and Aardvark. 😍

#botm #aardvarkbookclub

March was a good reading month for me. I finished 8 books. My favorite was Reformatory for sure.
