May Down For the Count!

For some reason it doesn't feel like I read much in May but I know I read plenty.  I think it's because I had bouts where I read a lot for a few days, then took a few days off, then picked up again.  Guess I was kind of binge reading huh?  So let's see how I REALLY did.

My Lies, Your Lies: Susan Lewis (4/5)

Goldilocks: Laura Lam (5/5)

Soulless: Gail Carriger (4/5)

This Is How I Lied: Heather Gudenkauf (5/5)

Sabrina: Daughter of Chaos (4/5)

Sister Dear: Hannah Mary McKinnon (4/5)

Until Summer Comes Around: Glenn Rolfe (5/5)

(S)Witchboard: Andrew Post (4/5)

And Then There Were None: Agatha Christie (5/5)

The Secret of Bones: Kylie Logan (4/5) - Review pending

Just Friends: Holly McCulloch (4/5) - Review pending

So overall not too shabby.  I have to say that Until Summer Come Around was probably my favorite but I read a heck of a lot of books I enjoyed this month and even roamed out of my comfort zone with a romance and a science fiction title.  

How did you do in May???

May Down For the Count

So I actually don't feel like I read a whole lot in May.  In retrospect, it wasn't that bad but I have two books which I started and didn't get finished which will carry over to June.  One was a library book which had to go back to Overdrive so I'm on the wait list again, and the second was "NOS4A2" which I wanted to start but did not make a priority.  

So I read 8 books this month and started 2 additional one.  I am still making progress on my challenges but the one I actually co-host with Stormi, the Cloak & Dagger Challenge, is getting the least love for some reason.

The Cold is in Her Bones - Peternelle van Arsdale 4/5

(What an Animal, Library Lovers)

The Hiding Place - C.J. Tudor 2/5

(Cloak & Dagger)

Antarctic Ice Beast - Hunter Shea 3/5

(What an Animal)

I Hate Fairyland Vol. 2 - Skottie Young 4/5

(Library Lovers)

Ghost Mine - Hunter Shea 4/5

Magic Slays (Kate Daniels #5) - Ilona Anrews 4/5

(Library Lovers, Dancing with Fantasy)

Biloxi - Mary Miller 3/5

(Library Lovers, What an Animal)

The Pursuit of Grouchiness: Oscar the Grouch's Guide to Life 4/5

(Library Lovers)

STARTED BUT NOT FINISHED:

NOS4A2 - Joe Hill

Dreaming Darkly - Caitlin Kittridge

So once again I only have one 5/5 read and that's because of the giant attack poodle known as Grendel.  I did have quite a few 4/5 which is always great and I honestly think this year I have been a little stingier on handing out 5/5.

TOTAL PAGE COUNT: 2261

So how was your April???
