May was a rough month. New tasks at work which had me travelling of my area back and forth for several days. This was tiring, which led to me falling behind in everything. Hopefully things will settle down in June.

I’ll bet you’re pretty exhausted with all that extra running around for work. Hopefully things will settle down for you this month and you can get caught up on your rest and your life. Looking forward to your reviews on those June books you have lined up.
Exhausted is an understatement. I am hoping June will be less hectic.
Another successful reading month in the bag. Thanks for sharing Nadene there are some covers up there and blurbs that I’m going to check out.

Glad to know you enjoyed Aftermath. Thanks, same to you.
Fantastic month Nadene!! I am loving the mystery suspense reads/audios.
Thanks Kim. Me too, Suspense on audio is so good.
I hope that June is a much calmer month for you. I hate feeling like I am behind with things. You had a great reading month! I can’t wait to read Jill Shalvis’s new book.
I too hope June will be calmer. Yes I had a good month, thanks. I am looking forward to reading Shalvis as well.
