Monthly Wrap Up and TBR

I took a break at the end of May and I am not attempting to get back in to the swing of things. I am actually excited to start blogging again and am looking forward to hopefully incorporating some changes in to the blog.

Work is still a bit of an adjustment and I am hoping to get things almost back to normal by the end of June. 

Before I talk about what June will bring for me reading wise I have to recap May. 

The books that were on my list are:

Anatomy by Dana Schwartz  (goodreads)
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston (goodreads)

I also had some ebooks that I hoped to read:

Birds of California by Katie Cotugno (goodreads)
Groupies by Sarah Priscus (goodreads)
How to Fake it in Hollywood by Ava Wilder (goodreads)

Here is what I managed to read in March:

Absolutely nothing. Yup, I read no books. It felt strange, but I think I needed to take the month off.

My #PopCultureResolution book for May was Monstress, Vol. 1: Awakening by Marjorie M. Liu, Sana Takeda, which I managed to read and will review soon. The movie was Funny Girl. I am hoping to get caught up on all my #PopCultureResolution posts this month.

Here is what I hope to read in June:




Anatomy by Dana Schwartz  (goodreads)
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston (goodreads)

I also have some ebooks that I am hoping to get to:



Birds of California by Katie Cotugno (goodreads)
Groupies by Sarah Priscus (goodreads)
How to Fake it in Hollywood by Ava Wilder (goodreads)

My #PopCultureResolution picks for this month are Nimona by Noelle Stevenson. I have already read it and will be reviewing soon! My movie is Sing Street. I am excited to watch it soon! 

Next up is an update on my two reading challenges:

I have decided to make this an awards free blog. I appreciate the gesture, and love that you thought of my blog, however I simply can't pass them along as required.
