June Reading Stats

Happy Monday Friends! I hope everyone who celebrated had a safe and happy 4th. We spent the day with my in-laws and we played games and just had a great time. Today is also day 4 of Summerween and I am not doing great. I have read two books so far this month and none really fit the read-a-thon, I am about 40% through The Only Good Indians which completes 3 of the prompts as it has a black cover, is a horror and has paranormal elements to it. I am still going to try and read Ring Shout and An Ambush of Widows by the end and I want to at least start Survive The Night.

So in June I read 17 books and 11 of those were advance reader copies which was my focus for June. I still have a ton that come out in July but as I said in my maybe TBR I am focusing on mood reading this month. I think my favorite read this month was To Sir With Love, it was such a cute romance. My least favorite was Every Vow You Break, it was such a let down for me.
