Books I Didn’t Finish: May 2023
Posted by Jessi (Geo) on June 15, 2023 | 0 Comments

Hooboy, May was a bad month for reading! I started off fairly strong with two almost-5-star reads (Fourth Wing, Starling House), and after I finished Starling House I was in such a bad slump that I could not get into ANYTHING. I ended up having to re-read the Raven Cycle via audio (Will Patton is FANTASTIC, highly recommend!) because I wasn’t in the mood for anything new.
