#ReadMyOwnDamnBooks - May

I almost forgot to write this post because I'm totally focused on getting through these last two and a half weeks of school and everything else is just a distraction. Summer vacation is so close I can taste it. Right now I find it hard to focus on a book for too long. I can't wait to have task-free days where I just sit in a lawn chair (in the shade) with a book and a huge glass of iced tea. Still, I've been walking more lately so I'm getting through audiobooks faster than normal and I've tried to make at least a couple of them ones that I have the paper copies of on my TBR. This wasn't a great month for progress on this challenge but I'm still in a good position to meet my goal.

For this challenge, my goal is 80 books for the year from my own shelves, whether they're new books from the TBR or rereads.

May

Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore
Adventure Time: Candy Capers by Yuko Ota and Ian McGinty
The Apothecary by Maile Maloy
The Memory of Blood by Christopher Fowler
Elijah's Mermaid by Essie Fox

Monthly Total: 5
Yearly Total: 35

I'm going to try my best to read more TBR books in June. The main obstacle to that will be the fact that I listened to The Raven Boys last week (OMG!) and I anticipate most of June will be filled with me rushing through the other books as soon as I can get them from the library. I'm also continuing on with the audios of The Apothecary series but only the first book was on my TBR. Oh well!

Is there a book that you couldn't resist this month that tempted you away from your TBR?

Reading here, there, and everywhere,
