May Monthly Wrap Up!

Hello everyone!  I'm happy to say that I've managed to read a couple of reading arcs for the month of May, which is great since my ARC pile just keeps getting larger and larger everyday!  Meanwhile, I have noticed that I haven't gotten much posting done in May, probably because I was so busy in May.  But, reading 7 books in May was quite an accomplishment and I'm hoping to read more books in June now that summer is in session!

Books Read this Month:

1.  Food Wars! Volume 1 by Yuto Tsukuda

2.  Monstress: Awakening Volume 1 (Parts 3, 4, 5, 6) by Marjorie Liu (NETGALLEY)

3.  Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

4.  The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown
