How was your month?
Past Midnight Book Reviews & More 
Great wrap up! Looks like a pretty good reading month, especially in terms of numbers! I’m kinda bummed to see that The Floating World didn’t rate higher although I know 3.5 is still good. I’m very keen to check that one out whenever I find it in the bookstore here (I hope I do)! 🤭 I’ve been thinking about checking out Phantasma soon. I hope your reading in May is more enjoyable than April!
I think you’ll like The Floating World a lot! I think the sequel has the potential to be better though because the way this one ended and there is one character I think we just need to learn more about. I think I’ve been reading
so much romantasy that when this came along I was like wait…a sweet romance? But when I think back on it I kind of appreciate it lol.
So many books. Look like a good month of reading.
Have a great May reading month.
