Hi everyone! Kids are on summer break – yay! But my son is still getting over a cough. We had the laziest day on Sunday so all I did was read. Now it’s Wednesday and I have a doctor’s appointment. I have been packing for my South Korea trip which happens on Sunday. Just a few more errands to take care of before then and then I’ll be on vacay. I’m excited to go to somewhere new!

What are you currently reading?

The Knight and the Moth by. Rachel Gillig – I haven’t gotten far because I’m reading the hardcover and I need daylight for that (but I read mostly at night). Might have to read this one after my vacation.

Summer in the City by. Alex Aster – same reason as above

Wrath of Dragons by. Olivia Rose Darling (Fear the Flames, #2) – this is an arc and I’m 11% in.

The Homemade God by. Rachel Joyce – 16% in

Tricks of Fortune by. Lina Chern – 13% in

More arcs to knock off my July netgalley list! And then I’ll be moving on the August arcs! I don’t have a lot in August but why did I sign up for so many in September?! I think it’s funny that in November, I only have 1 arc to read. 😅

Okay now that The Knight and the Moth came in, I’m going to try finish that and Summer in the City, two hardcovers on my shelf. But I really am working through so many July arcs – only 7 more of them to go. 😬 I want to knock off a few more before I go on my vacation to South Korea. I don’t think I’ll have time to be reading there, maybe on the long plane ride? I’ll be bringing my kindle, so maybe I can finish a book or two. It’s Wednesday and it was a busy weekend and of course my son is sick again, he was just sick 3 weeks ago! Hopefully he’s okay to finish out the last week of school (but he wishes he doesn’t have to lol). Hope everyone is having a good week so far!

What are you currently reading?

The Knight and the Moth by. Rachel Gillig – just started this one

Summer in the City by. Alex Aster – just started this one too

Wrath of Dragons by. Olivia Rose Darling (Fear the Flames, #2) – this is an arc and I’m 10% in.

The Homemade God by. Rachel Joyce – this is another arc that I got gifted, but never requested, just started and I’m 4% in. It’s something different from Fantasy so I decided to read and review it.

I kind of don’t know what to read right now because I’m waiting for my copy of The Knight and the Moth to come in. So I’m trying to read more July arcs, but I have a lot of fantasy arcs so I do need to break them up with other genres. I actually can’t believe I read 5 contemporary books this past week! But they are so much shorter (thank goodness) than the recent romantasy books, it’s really nice to just get through something under 400 pages!

We are counting down to June, and my vacation! I’m excited but also nervous too? So I am trying my hardest to get through July arcs – I had 18 and now I have 12 to go 🫠. But I also see in September I have 12 arcs to finish…then Oct-Dec…barely anything. Yet, I also want to read the newest books – reader problems!!

I finally got some audiobooks for this month – and why did so many library holds become available to borrow at the same time?! Also my son came down with a cold or the flu or some virus on Sunday – he went to school the past 2 days but last night he had a fever so I said he is staying home today. I’m trying not to get his germs – I’m already dealing with allergies from pollen and volcano vog! We just need to get through this week. 😅 And forget my book buying ban – I give up lol…the pretty edges are too enticing. 🫠

And here we are at the end of April. WOW. May is gonna go fast because it’s the last month school for the kiddos. And I’m trying to read my July arcs, because there are so many 😅. I go on my trip to South Korea in the second week of June, so I’m trying to stay on top of things.

Someone needs to take Netgalley away from me – I have way too many arcs to read this year but I can’t stop requesting! I’m trying to escape reality and boy am I reading many more books this year to do that. But why are there SO many books releasing in July – and why did I request all of those? lol

I feel like the books I’ve been reading have been spicer and darker lately. 🤔 I need to get out of this fantasy headspace of mine and cleanse with some contemporary romance – something lighter and happier lol. So once I’m done with this batch of current reads, I’m jumping into the contemporary romances I have listed below in my what I’m reading next section.

I hate tax season – we owe a lot this year. BOO… So back to my book buying ban! I don’t actually need to be buying any books because I have so many arcs to get through and library books. 😅 I’ve been reading too much fantasy I think and need to read something light-hearted soon.

Well it’s been that kind of week again – trying to escape from the realities of the world! How’s about those tariffs huh? 😖 But also the stress around me makes it hard to read sometimes. I’m trying to concentrate on arcs because I have SO many arcs due in July and I have my South Korea trip in June, then I have Vegas in July so I’m actually trying to get that July arc list down a little. But not gonna lie, the purple book covers this years have been banger books! Oathbound, Holy Terrors and now Sunrise of the Reaping. 💪🏾

Today is the day my kids have been WAITING for – the Nintendo Switch 2 was showcased in a Nintendo Direct so it was an early morning for my son, it aired at 3am in Hawaii. I wasn’t waking up that early to watch it lol but I did watch it once I woke up. Anyway let’s talk BOOKS:
