Welcome to my May 2025 Wrap Up! This month I was able to read 9 books: 3 books/ebooks and 6 audiobooks. Some of these books have already been reviewed and others have reviews posting a little later. A few may have been read in previous months but I was holding these reviews to a little closer to their publication date. The rest of these stats reflect the book reviews I published on the blog this month.

We don’t talk about the backlist over here XD
Good luck on your backlist challenge, though! Maybe I’ll try to tackle mine next year.

That sounds like a fantastic bookish month with all those high ratings! There are quite a few I hope to read soon as well… Friends To Lovers and The Spectacular are probably up first. I hope you will have a wonderful June!

Like you I need to get going on my backlist books! I love your image at the top to show all the books you read. I am working to catch up on reviews now that school is out for me.
