Happy June Everyone!
I can’t believe how fast May went by. However, summer is in full swing and I can finally catch up on reading and blogging. I’m super excited to try this reading challenge!
I saw this challenge on chelseadolling reads, who will be guest hosting sprints on the readathon’s Twitter account the night of June 19th. The readathon was created by Dylan from dylanthereader5.
The goal is to complete 4 challenges! Your job is to pick which 4!, Always, you can complete more or less than 4 if you’d like.

My Picks & TBR List
❤️- Made You Up by Francesca Zappia. Emma from emmabooks has RAVED about this book [skip to 14:30 in this video to check out her thoughts!] and I recently finished Eliza and her Monsters, Francesca’s newest release, which I really enjoyed. I’m super excited to check this one out. (Completed 6/25)
😁 & 😒- Heartless by Marissa Meyer. This book has been on my TBR for two months now and every month something happens so I can’t read it. With a more free month, I definitely plan to get to it this month. (Completed 6/23)
👶🏻- Geekerella by Ashley Poston. I’ve heard so many great things about this book and I’m super excited to finally read it.
👬- Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli. I’ve been wanting to read this one for a couple months now and was already planning to pick it up in June. This book features a gay MC, a couple minority side characters, and a couple Jewish characters. I’m excited to try to get through it. (Completed 6/13)
🕑- Time to give The Outsiders a reread. This is a fairly short book (180 pages) and I loved it in high school. I haven’t read it since then and now that I have a signed copy of the 50th Anniversary Edition; it’s time to pick it up again. (Completed 6/25)
📚- Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. This is another book that I’ve heard nothing but good things about and I’m thrilled to check it out. (Completed 6/10)
