No 5⭐️ books in May, but I enjoyed this one the most.

Didn‘t quite get my bingo for May, but hoping I can start over and get one for June. 🤞🏻 #alphabeticalbingo

June #BookSpinBingo

I‘ve been in a weird reading mood the past couple months, so I‘m using June as a “catch-up” for the books I meant to read for previous #bookspin lists this year.

#doublespin

Decided to do a simple #AlphabeticalBingo board for May. I don‘t think I have any X titles on my TBR, so I skipped that letter—but all the others are here. I‘m interested to see where I get a bingo and which letters are best represented in the month.

Decided my stack for #14Books14Weeks2023 should be books from my shelves with summery covers. ☀️

✨ April Wrap-Up ✨

—50 books

—2 ebooks
—48 audiobooks

5⭐️ for Unequal Affections & The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy

#ThingsInCommon really kept me on track for the month, and 74% of my books read were off my physical TBR. 🙌🏻

My #bookspinbingo board for May.

#BookSpin: Come Back to Me
#DoubleSpin: Mist, Metal, and Ash

Not my best #20in4 showing, but I still finished five books—and almost the sixth. Not a fan of Romantic Comedy, but the rest were fun reads.

Hoping to work on my #BookSpinBingo books this week.
