→ Oops, May was not my best blogging month. I kept pushing back writing posts to the point I would just completely forget. It also just felt like a oddly busy month? I don’t really remember a whole lot that I did. It wasn’t super important stuff, just little things that kept coming up that would have to get done and hobbies got pushed to the side. Anyways, I’m here for June and I have the next 3 months of blog posts planned – here’s to hoping I keep up with it all!
→ I don’t have much to share with you about May. We celebrated Mother’s day and my mom’s birthday. I got my second dose of the vaccine! Aaaaand…that’s it 😆 June through August should be a more eventful time. So many things are opening and we have a few plans already like the aquarium, the county fair, and a camping trip. I’m excited to get Emerson out to have new experiences. Oh, I’m also planning on signing him up for a toddler class and swim lessons. I’m really looking forward to this summer!
→ The rest of this post is a whole lotta book lists & book cover images. So, enjoy the visuals!
I didn’t have as great of a reading month but I did alright.
The title links take you to my review – except when noted otherwise.

Oh my gosh, so many new books. I’m not even sure if this is all of them. I probably missed something. I’m not going to share a photo of each one because, yeah, but you can click on each title for the Goodreads page! I felt like that was a happy medium 😆

I feel excited about summer too! It’s starting to feel normal and that feeling it spreading😁 I hope you have a fantastic month!
It’s so nice! I hope you have a great month too!
Sounds like you have some fun outings planned for the summer!
I’ve never read Scythe but I know several people that consider it their favorite book.
Yes! I’m looking forward to them. Scythe has some great reviews, hopefully it lives up to the hype lol
Great haul! And good luck for your June TBR, I found Scythe really enjoyable!
I’ve heard great things about Scythe! I hope I can get to it (it’s at the bottom of my priority list lol)
I also wasn’t on my blogging game last month; I wound up taking 3 weeks off and then trying to catch up in the last couple of days in the month because I had like 6 June 1 ARCs lol. Good job on planning out content so far ahead and good luck getting it all written!
Oh gosh haha I hope you were able to catch up and are now smooth sailing! I may have overbooked myself with review copies this month so we’ll see how that goes >.<
So glad you got your second vaccine! Glad you had a decent month too! Sounds like you have a lot of great stuff coming up- also very impressed that you have 3 months of blog posts figured out! I don’t even have 3 DAYS (I have zero days, actually. Zero. 😂) I looooved the Scythe series, I hope you do too! I really need to get to Leviathan Wakes too, hope you enjoy!
I mean, it’s all subject to change hahaha. I say “hey guys I have 3 months planned” then realized I don’t like what I had planned for this coming up Tuesday so now I have nothing and am trying to think of something >.< hahaha Blogging is a hard rollercoaster man.
May was kind of a rough month for me as well. Looks like you got some good books read and new to you as well! Hope we all have a better June.
