May Reading Wrap-Up!
May reading wrap-up! 📚 A mix of absolute favorites and a few that didn’t quite hit the mark. Feeling good about the progress!
This month also gained me a new favorite author: C.G. Drews! I absolutely loved their books and I’m definitely going to be reading more from them.
May 2018 Reading Wrap-Up
The Martian by Andy Weir Rating: ★★★★☆ - really liked it Review: No Format: Print Reading Dates: May 1 - 5 Read Count: 1 Favorite Thing: Sarcastic! Least Favorite Thing: "The lunatics at NASA have me doing all kinds of rape to the MAV. . ." Rape? Really? Jackass.
Well the internet was right, the book was funny, I'm glad I read it. Aside from that one sentence, it was a really good book. I would have quoted it a lot more, but I'm fairly certain if you added up all the 'Martian' quotes on Goodreads you could reprint full half of this novel (at least).

Practical Magic by Alice Hoffman Rating: ★★☆☆☆ - it was ok Review: No Format: Print Reading Dates: May 11 - 13 Read Count: 1 Favorite Thing: I just can't think of anything I liked enough to say was my favorite thing. Least Favorite Thing: So many...
I just... This wasn't a bad book by any means. But I just expected to love it and I barely even liked it... I actually preferred the film, which is something I never say.

Undiscovered Gyrl by Allison Burnett Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ - did not like it Review: Yes Format: Print Reading Dates: May 7 - 15 Read Count: 1 Favorite Thing: I literally didn't like any part of it. Least Favorite Thing: Been a long time since I read a book with so many racist comments. I wasn't missing it.
I read this because I had seen the movie version and found it tolerable enough that when I saw it was based on a book I decided to try the novel. This was a poor choice on my part.

My monthly wrap-up for May is now up! Feel free to stop by and see what went on over at my blog this past. :)
Have you seen my latest booktube video yet? I had SO much fun filming in this format!
Already another month has passed without any blogging on my part, but I am not here to cry about that, because I had quite a good reason...
May was a great reading month for me, both quantity as well as quality-wise, so I’m very happy to talk about all the amazing books in my monthly wrap-up!

May Wrap-Up!
Hello, fabulous bloggers! It’s June! Or, rather, it has been June for six days and I’ve only just noticed. Where has the time gone? When you laze around like a sloth all day you really start to lose the hours, let me tell you 😀 Anyway! The month of May was kind of a weird one, because although I finished my exams (and college) at the start of May, there was still a solid week of studying for me…

THEREADERGLOW’S MAY WRAP-UP
Once upon a time 4 books in a month would have seemed like a huge accomplishment, but now I’ve gotten so used to reading 5-7 books a month that I’m like “I failed, I totally failed.” But I DID NOT fail. I read 4 books, and each and every one of them was amazing. No regrets!
The books I read in the month of May are as follows:
Ruin and Rising (The Grisha, #3) by Leigh Bardugo (4.5/5 stars)
The Raven King (The Raven Cycle, #4) by Maggie Stiefvater (5/5 stars)
And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie (4/5 stars)
The Outsiders by S.E Hinton (reread, 5/5 stars)
Here’s to more good reading in the month of June!
