My son picked this one out, but it‘s a bit long for him. We‘ll be reading it over two nights. A bittersweet beginning to this book. Deals a little with death of a loved one. Mostly about transitions in life. Something I‘m not sure my son can remember since we‘ve finally stayed in the same place for two years. (He has trouble with long term memory.) Would be a good book to read if a child is moving to a new place.

Was looking through my stats yesterday trying to convince my cousin to get Storygraph and I forgot how much I liked looking at all the little graphs. #Storygraph
8 books in May! Can you tell I‘m between jobs? 😂
I‘m also halfway through Audition for #CampLitsy2025. Finding it a little tough going as I dislike the main character. I‘ll probably push through to finish it this week and start on something queer for Pride month.

I‘m definitely in a bit of a reading hangover after finally finishing the Ruthless Desires series. I feel like I‘m getting back in the swing of things now, though.

Really good books this month!
Favourite is the tagged. I‘m trying to read more LGBTQIA books as well as books by non-cis white male authors.

I only read 28 books in April. In all fairness, I got lost in Stardew Valley. It‘s a great game to play while listening to audiobooks, but I‘m so into the game that when the book ends I just keep playing. Go figure.

Does anyone know how to get StoryGraph to graph books by year of publication without entering that as a tag? The date is part of the information they show about each book so it seems like there ought to be a way, but I‘m not finding instructions anywhere. Thanks. #storygraph

This was a wild month. I read more books than there were days in the month (just). I read A LOT of good books, but also a fair share of meh books. Talk about an adventure.
