My Month Is Booked... June 2026 Edition

 



^Thank you to Farrah for hosting the link-up!^


I didn't read as much as I wanted to in June as I was busy watching sports but I loved all of the books I did get around to reading this month!


Good Grief -Sara Goodman Confino

My Rating: 4.5 stars


This was Sara Goodman Confino's novel that came out last year. Her novels are so good. I would say that her books are a good mix of fiction/romance and they usually take place earlier in history. This novel takes place in the 60's. A few years ago, I downloaded one of her books for free on Kindle Unlimited that looked interesting, loved it, and then read her backlist. "A mother- and daughter-in-law. To move on, one of them will have to move out in a hopeful and hilarious novel about widowhood and family friction by the bestselling author of Don’t Forget to Write." I thought this novel was beautiful. Sara Goodman Confino's writing is just so wonderful.

Off the Record -Sara Goodman Confino

My Rating: 4.5 stars


This is Sara Goodman Confino's latest release. This book also takes place in the 60's. "An aspiring newspaper reporter comes across a mystery that threatens to turn the Cold War hot in a funny, thrilling, and strictly undercover romantic comedy by the bestselling author of Don’t Forget to Write." Once again, another beautiful novel! Also, how pretty are the covers of her books? I love the colors together on this cover.

Down with the Shipmans -Meg Mitchell Moore

My Rating: 4.5 stars


I love Meg Mitchell Moore's novels and this is her latest release. "From the bestselling author of Mansion Beach, a summery drama following three sisters who return to their childhood home, each with their own secret, perfect for readers of Sandwich and Pineapple Street." Once again, Meg Mitchell Moore hit it out of the park with this one. I highly recommend all of her novels. I think I have read them all except one and I have it on my Kindle but haven't read it yet.

So Old, So Young -Grant Ginder

My Rating: 5 stars


This is the first novel I read by Grant Ginder and I absolutely loved it. I want to read his back list now.

"Six Friends.
Five Parties.
Twenty Years…
How did we get So Old, So Young?

From Grant Ginder, the bestselling author of The People We Hate at the Wedding, comes a novel of impending millennial middle age that is part love story, part tragic comedy. Five parties over the course of two decades bring six college friends together, exploring the ways we can run from and cling to our friends in love, life, and death."

I thought this book was really great and I loved the different POV's.

Books Read In December 2021 & End of Year Book Survey

  In December, I read 6 books. The first three books I read are apart of a series. The series is called Moose Springs, Alaska by Sarah Morgenthaler. I rated all three of these books 3 stars on the Goodreads website. This was a super cute series. I really enjoyed these books. They were fun, light reads. I think the fourth book in the series comes out in 2021. Book 1: The Tourist Attraction Book 2: Mistletoe & Mr. Right Book 3: Enjoy The View The Holiday Switch -Tif Marcelo I loved this book so much. It was such a cute, fun, and festive read. This is on my list of my favorite books I've read this year. I rated this book 4 stars. The last two books I read this month are also apart of a series.

  The Code For Love & Heartbreak -Jillian Cantor I saw this book on sale for $10 and thought it looked interesting. It was a cute story line. A little repetitive at places but overall I enjoyed it. I rated it 3 stars on the Goodreads website. When Less Becomes More -Emily Ley I love Emily Ley's books and I had the pleasure of meeting her at one of the Wild For Planners Go Wild Planner conferences. She is super sweet! I really enjoy her personal development books. I rated this book 3 stars. Heartstopper (Volume 4) -Alice Oseman I love this series so much. I love graphic novels and I really wish my library had more of them. I rated this book 4 stars. Bad Moms -Nora McInerny I like this movie (and the sequel A Bad Mom's Christmas) and I saw this at a discount store and I had no idea it was made into a novel. I enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite book ever since I knew everything that happened since it stuck very close to the movie. I rated it 3 stars. Life, Unscheduled -K...

  Heartstopper (Volume 3) -Alice Oseman While I was back home visiting my family for Christmas, I went to the mall with my dad and my nephews but I've been dealing with some health issues and my pain was really bad that day (and the mall was super crowded) so I ended up sitting in a chair at Barnes & Noble and reading the first two volumes of the Heartstopper series while they were shopping. I like this series. I love graphic novels but my library system doesn't have a lot of the ones I want to read and I will not buy graphic novels because I read them in a day. I rated this book 3 stars. Blame It On The Mistletoe -Beth Garrod I absolutely adored and loved this book so much. The characters, the plot, the setting... I loved it all. I rated this book 5 stars. Adequate Yearly Progress -Roxanna Elden I did not enjoy this book at all. I rated it 1 star. All I Want For Christmas -Wendy Loggia This is another super cute Christmas novel. I wasn't able to get to all of the Chr...
