Hi! With another month over, I wanted to wrap up all the
books I read last month. I had a great reading month, with most of my reads being
5 stars. Read on to see what I read and see my star ratings. * denotes a
favorite read of the month.
Physical Books
1- Kate In Waiting by Becky Albertalli- 5 stars (*****)
I finished the last 40 or so pages of this on June first. I
loved this book so much and was smiling the whole time. This book was filled
with funny moments and also some very serious moments.
2- * One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston–5 stars (*****)
Oh, my goodness I loved this book so much. The mix of Sci-fi
and Contemporary Romance was just what I look for in a summer read. The romance
was sweet and the characters were so much fun to read.
3- * Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid -5 stars (*****)
This book has a bit of a story with it. Amazon told me that
the post office, not a local one, had probably lost the book and that I could
get a refund. I got my refund and then went to Target the next day to get a
copy. The next Tuesday the book showed up, and I put the brand new book in my
local free little library. I loved this book so much and I believe it’s my
second favorite book I’ve read by Taylor Jenkins Reid.
4- Tash Hearts Tolstoy by Kathryn Ormsbee (reread) – 5 stars
(*****)
This was added to my tbr after I made my graphic and I forgot
to get the photo which is why it’s missing. This is one of my favorite YA contemporaries
and I just love it so much. I love Tash as a character and I love the story.
5- The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett- 4.5 stars
(****.5)
I’m trying to read more classics I missed as a kid this
year. I’m interested in children’s and middle-grade classics as opposed to
adult classics this year. I really enjoyed this story a lot, it started off as
one of my favorites, then as the book progressed, I started to notice some pacing
issues. Due to this, I did not love this book as much I loved A Little
Princess, but this was still my second favorite classic I’ve read this year. I
enjoyed the characters and the story.
The Ebooks
6- Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas- 5 stars (*****)
This was a group read for TBR and Beyond Facebook group last
month. It surprised me how much I loved it because it’s not really a genre I
read. I was debating between 4.5-5 stars for this because I wasn’t sure what my
rating would be. The end of the story made it 5 stars for me.
7-* Felix Ever After by Kacen Callender -5 stars (*****)
Ok so I saw this book mentioned a lot last year, and I
thought it was one of those books that were hyped but wouldn’t deliver what I
look for in a story. I adored this book, and it’s one of my favorites of all
time. I just loved Felix, Ezra, and the rest of the characters in this story. Warning:
This book is very heavy so look at the Story Graph page before reading.
8- * You Should See Me In A Crown by Leah Johnson–5 stars
(*****)
This was a sweet WLW romance I read this month. I was
reading two pretty heavy contemporaries so I was glad this book was a little
lighter and fun, while still having an important message. I know Leah Johnson
has a new book coming out this month, so that book is also very much on my
radar.
9- Heartstopper Volume 1 by Alice Osserman
I am on the Heartstopper train! I'm reading a book a month in the webtoons app. I just loved this book so much.
