April, May, and June of 2020 have been crazy exciting months for the blog!
I ended up taking June off for a much needed mental health relaxation. I am still not 100% but I wanted to start returning things back to normal. You’ll notice next to the June Books Finished there is a (*) that indicates that those books were all online fanfiction. You can see which ones in my book database.
We have grown a lot and also learned a whole lot. Here is a quick look at the stats and a summary of the reviews posted for the second three months of 2020. Also included is an overview of the April 2020 To Be Read Pile Challenge.
