Hello Friends! I hope everyone had a great reading month in June! I am hoping to get to backlist books from my shelves and some ARC’s in July since it’s more of a relaxed reading month for me! What are you hoping to read this month?
For my back list books (which is any book I bought prior to January 1st 2022)

ARC’s For July that I need to read.

- Reckless Girls by Rachel Hawkins – Backlist 2022 ARC I want to get too.
- The Collective by Alison Gaylin – A backlist 2021 ARC that I never got to.



For Kayla’s Buzzword – This month’s buzzword is a bookish word.

Readathons
I am going to participate in Summerween which runs from July 15th-21st. I will be putting up a separate post with all the details about this readathon in a few days!
Again these are all books that I would like to read soon but I know I probably won’t get to most of these. What are you reading this month? Are you participating in any fun reading challenges?
