May Wrap-Up & June TBR

Hi guys! So I know you guys have noticed I've been pretty absent from the blog for the first 5 months of this year. It wasn't something I necessarily planned, but life happened. I don't really wanna explain it for like the 3rd or 4th time, so I'll link to the post that kinda explains everything thats happened since like December, but things are turning around guys! While my depression finally subsided around the end of March, beginning of April, there was still a fair amount of turmoil going on with other things. But, a lot of that has died down as well and I'm finally feeling really motivated to blog and read again! The past two weeks I've really felt like I wanted to start posting again and I've been really looking at my books wanting to pick them up again! This is so huge since even after the depression subsided, I still had no motivation to pick up a book. And I tried. But I'm really happy that I'm finally feeling the motivation again because I've genuinely missed blogging and reading so much.

So I did actually get started on a book this month, or more so, the last two weeks. I'm not super far into it yet, but I'm actually really looking forward to reading more of it. So that book is:

Aurora Rising (The Aurora Cycle #1) by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff

Guys, I'm really enjoying what I've read so far. You guys know I loved The Illuminae Files by these two so I thought this would be a good book to help get me get back into reading and I was right. I just love a good sci-fi novel and I've been feeling a pull towards a few sci-fi books since I've been feeling like reading again.

With that being said, even though I didn't read a whole lot in May, I was productive. I've been behind the scenes scheduling stuff for June. I have 7 posts scheduled now, with a few more I need to write. I've been putting holds on a few audiobooks and kindle books from the library. Two actually just came in this week! AND, I actually have 3 discussion post ideas for June!!! Guys, you know I struggled coming up with topics last year so I'm thrilled I have 3 ideas for this month already! :D

May Wrap-Up & June TBR

I did really well this month! I had originally put 15 books on my May TBR and I read 12 books total. A few weren't on my original TBR and some I've had to put off until June because I couldn't get them this month, but I still think I did awesome with reading this month!
