I picked up the audio of
and my first June publication,
.
Mod
Which was a good character driven novel, but I particularly enjoyed the location and exploration of Nigerian culture and cuisine!
I just got the audio for Gone Tonight
. I already had the ebook, but seem to be making much faster progress on my audios lately.I was also excited to see and get the audio for Flop Dead Gorgeous
available. I love this series. It is pretty formulaic, but there are great characters and it has really witty humor. It's always an enjoyable read.
I also finished a past pub review, Battleshipped
.My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Finished the month, msg 8 with a little % increase and what I felt was good progress. Enjoyed some of my fave series too!
I had a fantastic reading month in May, bringing my total of outstanding books to 9, even after adding some new ones!NetGalley Challenge – May
