I can’t believe it’s almost June! The weather is finally getting nicer and I’ve started carrying sunscreen everywhere — summer is almost here.
Reading Progress
I finally got out of my reading slump this month! I managed to finish one book, but I am in the middle of three others (mood reader problems). Somehow, despite this, I’m still on track to meet my Goodreads Reading Challenge goal with 20 books read so far this year.
Reviews
My Dark Vanessa | 5 stars | A dark, haunting read that I just couldn’t put down.
99 Percent Mine | 2 stars | This was, unfortunately, quite underwhelming and didn’t live up to The Hating Game.
The Wicked King | 4 stars | Everything I liked about The Cruel Prince, amplified. Filled with twists, turns, and morally ambiguous characters.
