The time it was a monthly recap {23}

You guys.  It’s May and I’m way behind on putting this recap together.  I debated on not even doing it, but I finally got my shit together.

Settle in.

Last month, I read a total of 19 books. {Click on the covers for my review on GR}

I guess April was a bit of a slow month for me and I’m not even sure why.  Maybe because I was busy on a good portion of the weekends and that’s when I can get some binge reading in…

 

I was sent the movie tie in copy of Everything, Everything {complete with a box filled with flowers} from Random House Kids. I won a UK copy of Alex, Approximately from Maximum Pop! Mad Miss Mimic was sent to me from Penguin RH Canada.

Kerri Maniscalco made me scream in the post office when I got this gorgeous Hunting Prince Dracula package.  Penguin RH sent these Doctor Who  Mr. Men books. And I got a pile of pretties from YallWest.

I also was able to trade for Lucky in Love by Kasie West, And Then There Were Four from Penguin RH, Spill Zone from :01Second, and Aftercare from Flatiron.

• Roshani Chokshi and Stephanie Garber for A Crown of Wishes
