May Wrap-Up

May was quite the whirlwind for our family! We had a bunch of birthdays to celebrate, including one little girl's first! We took several small trips and the husband and I have been very busy planning a second service at our church. I am hopeful we will get back into some sort of a routine soon, but I know the end of school is just around the corner...so I'm not sure that will happen anytime soon!

  1. I only read two books in May, not including audios and fan fiction. It was a super-tough month for me, but you totally rocked it. Well done!

  5. My own favorite book of May was Phantom Instinct by Meg Gardiner, a suspense thriller, but I did have a pretty good month all around. Out of your books, I also would like to read The Accident. That looks so good.

    1. I'm always impressed when I want to stay up until ridiculous hours of the morning to finish a book! Let me know what you think if you end up reading The Accident.

  7. 1st, OMGOSH that is the cutest baby. I want those cheeks! Nom!

    Next, uh, you read TEN books? Maybe you can spread some reading mojo too? LOL :P

    My favorite for the month? I can't decide! I read too many good ones. Delicious probably stands out the most, since it was the last one I read. And I adore foodie books.

    1. She is kind of adorable. I'm so glad other people are noticing too. :)

      It certainly wasn't a bad month, but finding time for five more books would have made me a happy lady!
