During the #reversereadathon I managed to read the last 221 pages of Thank You for Listening, the first 80 pages of For Butter or Worse, and just a bit of my eARC of Forget Me Not. It definitely helped give me a reading boost! @DeweysReadathon

Really wasn't feeling any of the May #botm picks 😕 Was really hoping the new R.F. Kuang book would be an option since Babel was a previous pick, but no luck. I guess it's still a possibility for June?

Pickpick

Finished my first 5⭐️ read of 2022! I loved this author's first book (Winter's Orbit) but this one was even better. Really fascinating, twisty scifi with excellently developed main characters. I love a messy, prickly protagonist, and Ocean's Echo definitely has that. I'll read whatever this author comes out with.

Pickpick

Finished my first book for #joyousjanuary - this one is a soft pick for me, maybe 3.5⭐️. The romance was cute, but the second half of the book had some very weird plot choices. I enjoyed the first book in this series, Delilah Green Doesn't Care, a lot more.
