๐ธ may reading ๐ธ
It’s time for another monthly reading recap!
I meant to post this two weeks ago, but life happened. I was all excited to get back to blogging, and then my busy schedule tag-teamed me with my mental health. ๐ But I’m making it! May was a mediocre reading month, as it marked the start of a slump that is still kicking my ass several weeks later.

June 17, 2024May was my worst reading month so far this year as well. Iโm sorry youโve been fighting a slump and have had some not so great mental heath days. I hope June is treating you better.
