May Update

Is it June already? 

I neglected to do a monthly update for April, so I made sure that I was on top of getting my May update out before I got too sidetracked. 

So here goes:

I participated in the Clean Sweep ARC challenge hosted by Kimba at Caffeinated Reads. My primary goal was to read and review 5 ARCs, unfortunately I only read 2. I tried.

 I listened to Voyager by Diana Gabaldon. I'd already read the paperback twice, but I really wanted to try the audio version. I had mixed reactions to it because I wasn't a big fan of the narrator. I still enjoyed it, as Voyager is one of my all-time favorite books.

I've listened to a total of 5 audiobooks. My goal was to listen to 5-10 audiobooks this year, so I've met that challenge. Go me! Everything else is just gravy.

5/5-10

I read 2 books in May for the Contemporary Romance Challenge.

This means I am over halfway to my goal of 20 books!

I didn't read any fantasy books in April or May. I better get on it!

I am really getting into Historical Romance books! I'm finding some new HR authors and series that I really like, as well as a few that I'm not a big fan of.

 I found a new (to me) HR author who I especially liked- Marsha Cunham! I definitely want to read more of her books and finish her Highlands series.

I read 6 Historical Romance books in May.
