We had a busy reading month in May! We covered a little bit of everything—romance, thrillers, sci-fi, magical realism, memoirs, and maybe even a self-help book?
Here’s hoping June continues to bring us some gems!💙📚

Forgot to do @thestorygraph.com May reading round up yesterday! It's been a bit of a slow reading month - I didn't finish any audiobooks and 'The Priory of the Orange Tree' was much longer than I'd expected 😄

A collage of books I have read in May, those books being: Soul of the Sword by Julie Kagawa, Kingsbane by Claire Legrand, Lightbringer by Claire Legrand, and Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas
A statistical analysis of my May reading wrap-up. I read a total of 4 books, 2,326 pages, and the average ratings of these books from me was 3.25/5 stars. My highest rated reads were Soul of the Sword at 4/5 stars, Heir of Fire at 3/5 stars, and Lightbringer at 3/5 stars. My average book length was 548 pages. My average time to finish was 9 days. I only read fiction this month, with 3 books being from the young adult genre and all 4 being from the fantasy genre. 1 of the 4 books I read was an e-book. I read the most pages on the 25th of May.
Not much variety in May, mainly because I dedicated it to finishing up the Furyborn trilogy and those books are a little beefy while being slow-paced at the same time 😮💨 trying to read a lot more and 4 books in a month is pretty good for me!! #mayreads #monthlyreadingwrapup #BookSky

Great month, with two ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reads! I highly recommend "Listen for the Lie" and "Red White and Royal Blue"!
"All the Colors of the Dark" (⭐⭐⭐⭐.5) was great, highly recommend as well!
"Stolen Tongues" (⭐⭐⭐⭐) was enthralling, the ending left me wanting...
