Hi Everyone! Happy June 1st!
I don’t really want May to end because it’s my birthday month 🙂 Exactly today last month is my birthday. I didn’t get to do any birthday tags as I planned, but I do want to. It’s cool to know what else is going on in the world while I’m on my way out haha.. Also, this is definitely a coincidence because this month is the only month ever that I have rated all 5 stars for all the books I have read! I have enjoyed 8 books on my own and 6 books with my son. I can’t believe it, all 5 stars!!!
Here are the books I have read and reviewed in May. I have also read 2 additional kids’ books but didn’t get a chance to review them.
My Section:
Zenn Diagram – Buddy Read with Charlotte @ charannelise – I rated it 5 stars!
A Darker Shade of Magic – Buddy Read with Namitha @ Teen Memoir – I rated it 5 stars!
The Art of Feeling – I rated it 5 stars!
Follow Me Back – I rated it 5 stars!
William Wenton and the Impossible Puzzle – I rated it 5 stars!
The Wood – I rated it 5 stars!
This Savage Song – I rated it 5 stars!
Lucky in Love – I rated it 5 stars!
Kids Section:
Weekly Reader: Summer Express – I rated it 5 stars!
Moe & Malaya Visit the Nurse – I rated it 5 stars!
A Morning with Grandpa – I rated it 5 stars!
Famous American of the Month Flip Chart – I rated it 5 stars!
Minnie & Max are OK – I rated it 5 stars!
Seagrass Dreams: A Counting Book – I rated it 5 stars!
Other:
The High School Book Tag [Original] Teen Memoir and I created this book tag together and I hope you all will join in! It’s really fun to do if I can say so myself haha..
Standalone Sunday | The Art of Feeling
ARC Giveaway – Intl – The Leaf Reader A Winner has been chosen. I’m sorry for those of you who didn’t win. I’m thinking to have another giveaway soon!
This month I couldn’t finish The Perfect Stranger by Megan Miranda. I have seen mixed reviews for this book. I may pick it up later and give it a try again. (This book ruin my perfect 5 stars score for the month haha..)
I don’t share my June TBR because even I don’t know which book I will read next. I changed my mind too much because all the books are fighting for my attention haha.. however, I am currently reading P.S. I Like You by Kasie West and Local Girl Missing by Claire Douglas and really enjoying them both.
I hope June will be excellent for you all!
xoxo,
Jasmine

You had a great month, with some highly entertaining posts. I think I am going to reserve the month of July to catch up on reading books. I have so many books ready to read but simply can’t find the time to read them (which honestly is a luxury problem, seeing as I just have way too many hobbies 😂). Still, it will also be nice to have a month where I can focus solely on reading except for the occasional movie in the theatres. Looking forward to your posts for the upcoming month😀

Actually, you do read… you read graphic novels or comics 🙂 I also wish to have more time to read haha.. It’s weird but the more I read, the more books keeps on piling up so I’m in the same time constraints as you 🙂

Haha, so true. But I am really behind on reading at the moment, so expect a lot of book reviews coming out in July on my blog 😊

Wow! 18 books 😊 I want to read that many too because there are so many great books that are waiting to be read! 😊 Good thing you were able to review them all? Maybe do a quarter wrap up instead of monthly? 😊

wow Jasmine, that is pretty impressive. A 5stars month, wow. Good for you. I get what you mean about Perfect Stranger. I didn’t like it so I ended up not doing a review on my blog. I juts wrote something brief on NetGalley. I hope that you will have better luck with it than I did when you decide to read it again.
Happy new month and enjoy all your books.

It looks like you had a fantastic reading month, Jasmine! I mean a month full of 5 star reads is always incredible. And you have me even more excited about reading The Wood. *pokes NetGalley* they just need to approve or decline already lol. Also, happy late birthday! I hope you had a good one. And I hope that June is a fantastic month for you. 😊💕

Thanks for the birthday wish Melissa! NetGalley should have a “poke you” button for sure!! I would use it for some of my old requests that stays pending forever 🙂 Yeah, 5 stars a whole month is rare.. unless I have become easier with my ratings.. I don’t know 🙂

You’re welcome!! I actually heard back from NetGalley today and they declined me for The Wood which I’m really sad about. 😢 But there’s always GR giveaways and such so here’s to hoping! 😊

Happy (belated) birthday, Jasmine! Glad you had such a wonderful month of reading! All five stars? That’s amazing. I’m so happy you loved ADSOM. I love that series! 😀 And I’ve been dying to read some Kasie West. I keep seeing positive reviews for a lot of her books. Hope you have a wonderful month of reading this month, too!

Thanks Azia! Kasie West writes cute contemporaries. I hope you will get a chance to read it. I just picked up another title from her called On the Fence from the library. It’s a 5 stars read from fellow bloggers too.
