June Recap

June Recap

This summer is just getting away from me! I don’t like it! I mean, I love summer but not when it goes so fast! I’ve had a pretty great month despite the speed with which is blew past me. I am, as always, incredibly excited about my books, though. PLUS! This month saw the return of one of my favorite nerd-tastic TV shows, The Legend of Korra, which I will be jointly recapping with my girl, Lisa. WOO HOO!!

reviews recapLooking for an excellent summer read? Look no further than OPEN ROAD SUMMER by Emery Lord.

THE CHAPEL WARS by Lindsey Leavitt was a little disappointing for me, friends. *sad face*

WHOA, THE FALCONER by Elizabeth May was an excellent historical fantasy about faeries.

Mermaids and I continue to have a little bit of a challenging relationship, but I liked DEEP BLUE by Jennifer Donnelly well enough.

The Leviathan series by Scott Westerfeld is LEGIT. EVERYONE READ IT.

On the Same Page this month is LANDLINE by Rainbow Rowell!

top ten recapThese are the top ten books I want to read if I’m hanging out at the beach.

I’ve read lots of great books this year, but these ten are my favorites so far!

Summer time is the right time for reading, and these ten books are on my summer reading list!

Cover trends! I think I maybe I didn’t read this topic 100% correctly, but I love these cover trends anyway.

waiting on recapOBVIOUSLY I’m looking forward to THE SLOW REGARD OF SILENT THINGS by Patrick Rothfuss. Anytime I can get more of his world, I’m in.

The cover for A THOUSAND PIECES OF YOU by Claudia Gray is glorious. NEED IT.

THE ACCIDENTAL HIGHWAYMAN by Ben Tripp just sounds completely up my alley.
