Here we go!
What are you currently reading?
I wanted to read the rest of the trilogy after loving the first book, so I’m on to the second!
What have you just finished reading?
I read a lot since last week, here’s the three books I read.
I just finished this book! And I liked it. The full review will be up on Friday!
I really liked this book! It was a super easy read, and had more depth to it than I thought it would. Overall, it was a good read. My full length review will be up after I finish the trilogy.
I had LOTS of thoughts about this book, but overall I enjoyed it. I found myself relating to it, which was both funny and comforting. A longer review will be up next week, as well as a podcast episode!
If you’re unfamiliar with it, this is a subscription box, called Book of the Month. Each month, you can pick from 5-7 selections of books that will come out that month.
It is also easy to add on additional books, or to skip months if you want!
BOTM is $10 per month, and if you use my link, we both get a discount!
Here are my predictions. This month I have 11 picks. Let’s get into it.

He’s starting to see the world, and those around him—even those he loves most—in whole new ways. 4.16 on Goodreads
