June 2022 Wrap Up and TBR

Can I just say this month has been absolutely crazy?

I got kind of sidetracked for the first half of the month when inspiration hit me hard and the writing juices just kept on flowing. I wrote 40K words for a fun story just for myself in about a week. I havenโ€™t written like that in YEARS and it felt amazing.

That being said, when youโ€™re stuck in a world of your own making with characters youโ€™re living out plots with, itโ€™s kind of hard to go dive into another world. So reading definitely took a little dive (as well as the blogging, whoops) but Iโ€™m learning that it is okay.

Repeat it with me, friends. It is OKAY, completely okay to have months where you donโ€™t read that much, where you donโ€™t post that much. Give yourself grace and live a little outside of this community if you need it! This is about doing it because we love it and not because itโ€™s a chore to have to do.

Top Ten Tuesday: Books on my Summer 2022 TBR

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.


Before I start off on todayโ€™s lovely TTT topic, I just wanted to say a quick thank you to all of you who wished me well after my bike accident last week. I always appreciate each and every one of you and your comments even if I may not have had the chance to respond to them yet. So from the bottom of my heart, thanks for being such a great community โ™ฅ๏ธ Iโ€™m healing well and hopefully will be fully recovered soon.

Todayโ€™s topic is about the books I want to read this summer. As usual, I like to read a collection of both new releases coming out this summer but also making space for other books I already own or havenโ€™t had the chance to read yet.

Have you read any of these yet? Are some of these on your summer list too?
