I want to know what (related to books and/or reading) you're most proud of. Did you finish a book? Did you diversify your tbr? Did you dnf a book you weren't vibing with? Even if you feel like it's a small thing if you're proud of it shout it out. Let's hype each other up!

For me, I think I'm most proud of introducing more non-fiction into my reading. I was never really a fan but I picked up The 100 Years' War on Palestine and suddenly needed to learn.

Introducing: PRIDE 🏳️‍🌈 QUEST

I wanted to make a little side quest with additional books added to my pretty stacked June TBR - utilized KU and my ever growing bookshelf - but here’s what I hope to read for Pride! 💜 = both June TBR/Pride Quest

💜 Knitting Needles by 💜 Open Throat by Henry Hoke 💜 A Magical Girl Retires by Park Seolyeon 💜 Tough Guy by Rachel Reid 💜 Cherry Blossoms After Winter Vol 3 by Bamwoo 💜 I Hear The Sunspot Vol 2 by Yuki Fomino 💜 Wet Sand Vol 3 by Doyak How to Fake it in Society by KJ Charles Spoiled Milk Avery Curran Is This a Cry for Help by Emily R Austin The Red Winter by Cameron Sullivan The Grand Deception of Benedict Blackmoor by Gaia Tate Girl’s Girl by Sonia Feldman Isn’t it Obvious by Rachel Runya Katz Local Heavens by KM Fajardo

I have so many Aardvark books unread! They are what’s contributing to about 1/3 of the list!

What are you reading first Pride?!

Addendum: Yes, Open Throat was so good and one of my favorite reads of the year!! I’m adding it to my re-read pile so I can annotate it! I immersive read it and it was sublime!

Are any of you on the Finch App? If so, do you wanna share your friend code so that our finches can be friends?

My favourite podcast Reading Glasses has just dropped an episode about pagebound. Can't wait to listen later today!
