June Wrap Up

What did you read in June?

Thanks to a few long train journeys, I managed to get through 11 books in June. Most of them were 4-star reads (which means I really liked them), but my book of the month was This Motherless Land, a retelling of Jane Austen's Mansfield Park from Nikki May, the author of Wahala. You can read all my reviews by clicking on the titles of the books below:
