May Recap

May! What a month! BEA came and went way too fast and it was the most exhausting fun. I posted a recap/haul just a few days ago, so the experience is still feeling very fresh to me. I miss seeing all my bookish friends every day, though I was v v happy to see my tiny Night Fury and my bed and my husband.
Anyway, because of all that BEA-exhaustion or preparation or recovery, May was definitely my least productive month, reader and blogger-wise. I said April was bad because I finished only 25 books but this was even worse...

And that is it for me for this last month. June has a lot of good reads in store --- I am pretty sure I won't be able to wait much longer for Gemina, that's for sure.
