Crap, how is June over already? Why does summer have to go by so quickly?! Luckily for us we enjoyed June while it lasted and got some great reads in. Jess finally joined the Leigh Bardugo fan club, we finished The Red Queen series and Circe, and fell in love with Sara Wolf’s Bring Me Their Hearts and Laini Taylor’s Strange the Dreamer. Outside our book lives, Jess visited Key West and Dallas while Teagan went to the Grand Tetons and the Sawtooths.

You read some great books in June.
The only one from your July list I’ve read is Caracal which I quite enjoyed. I’ve got a few of your others on my wishlist so looking forward to seeing what you think of them
