April, May and June Reading Recap
The last reading recap I did was in MARCH. And it's now July. This year is flying by so quickly!
I recently reached my goal of reading 55 books in 2019, and to celebrate, I wanted to get back to blogging. Okay, part of it was so I could make a list of the books I've read recently because who doesn't like making lists.
