Did AWESOME on the Debut Author challenge.. but lacking in a bunch of others. I need to start really concentrating on the CYBILS this summer. :)

Well, that's what I did this month. Still way behind review wise, which is killing me, but with all my new free time I can hopefully catch up!

    This is awesome! I'm thinking about doing a sort of summary post like this to end each month. Reflection is a good way to make sure that I'm keeping up on my readings/ challenges/ reviewing. Happy almost June!

    WOW you read a lot of books in May! May was actually a terrible reading month for me. I think I finished one book, read a whole book, and then read 3/4 of another. I can't remember the last time I read that little. Seeing all those awesome books you read SO makes me want to read MORE!
