Monthly Recap: May 2015!
Monthly Recap!
MAY
I started April off strong, but then started to lose my steam. Well, after the Memorial Weekend readathon, I have to say- I got my mojo back! I have been reading and blogging like crazy!
It's been a rough month as well, as I injured my knee recently. This definitely was the worst time for this to happen- right with summer starting. I have so many plans, so I'm really hoping next week's doctor visit will be a positive one!
My absolute favorite book of May would have to go to The Definition of Icing by Aven Ellis. (5 stars!) That book hit me in the feels and I loved how adorable it was! Nate Johansson is pretty much my dream guy, so it doesn't surprise me his book wins!

I did do two discussion posts this month. In the first I talked about What Blogging Has Done For My Life and the second discussed Social Media and the Impact It Has on Blogging and Reading.
I participated in two Top Ten Tuesdays this month:
Top Ten Authors I REALLY Want to Meet
Top Ten Books I Plan To Have in My Beach Bag This Summer
For some non-bookish related posts:
I cooked more yummy meals and hosted them on Tasty Tuesday!
Chicken and Cheese Quesadillas
Spaghetti with Quick Bolognese
Pepperoni Pizza Burgers
Fresh Tomato and Mozzarella Paninis
I shared some new music for Music Monday:
Mumford & Sons-Wilder Mind
Tove Lo- Queen of the Clouds
Song Obsessions:
Stitches by Shawn Mendes
All I Ask Of You by Josh Groban and Kelly Clarkson
Not On Drugs by Tove Lo
Tompkins Square Park by Mumford & Sons
Great Divide by Humming House

I'm so glad you loved Claimed. It seems I was the only one that didn't love that one.
ReplyDeleteAnd yay for Dirty Thoughts!
You had a good reading month! I am so sad to see that you didn't love Illusionarium though, I was really looking forward to that one. There are so many books you have here that I need to read!
ReplyDelete21 books! Wow. I loved Emma Chase's Tangled series and Rachel Vincent's Soul Screamers so I am really looking forward to both Overruled and The Stars Never Rise. Glad to see you gave it 5 stars. I've already heard so many great things about Rachel's new book! I checked out Dallas Demons first book and it sounds so good! Not a lot of people are talking about and I'm definitely intrigued.
ReplyDeleteHave a another great month this June!

You had an awesome month, girl! Well, except for Pucked. *shudders*
ReplyDeleteI'm excited for you to read Dirty Thoughts and Last Year's Mistake. I hope you love them! :)
Bummer about your knee :( I really really enjoyed All Played Out as well. Some of the others I plan to check out, like The Definition of Icing!

It was a tough month for the both of us! I'm hoping to read way more in June. :P
ReplyDeleteDirty Thoughts!!! So freaking excited for that one. And I'm happy to see the 5 stars for The Stars Never Rise. :)
Leave me some comment love! And I will get around to commenting back!
