I cannot believe that it is the end of June. While I have not kept up my goal of sharing book reviews each month in this space, I have been sharing a short visual on Instagram. I thought I'd do something similar here to recap the books I've read so far this year. This is going to be a simple YES - read the book or NO - don't bother, in what I'd like to call The Shortest Blog That Ever Lived.

This was really hard for me. I want to say so much more about the NO books. And now I really want to go back and see how I rated them on my Goodreads app. I bet some of the NO books are rated four stars. It's something I know I need to work on... it's like I don't want to hurt the book's feelings or something... yeah, whatever!
