Well hello everyone! How have you all been? My life has been crazy. Between a back injury, a cruise, COVID-19, and a new roommate (the Hubs is still here, don’t worry!!) it’s been a little nuts.

Are we back to normal yet? Absolutely not. But I’m getting to read a bunch (audiobooks are my friend here recently!) so that is helping with everything.

But I thought I would share some of the good books I’ve enjoyed lately!

True Biz is one of those books that kind of sneaks up on you. I started listening to the audiobook but realized co-reading this book would be best. The pages have some actual sign language on them and it’s very interesting.

Yours Truly is an example of a sequel I enjoyed more than the first book. This romance has a lot of heart and deals with mental health issues really well.

Dating Dr. Dil was a fun romp, steamy as all get out, and the Aunties! Omg my goodness, the Aunties!! If you like romance that has interfering family members, read this, it’s great!

I’ve read Project Hail Mary before and loved it. I loved the audiobook of it this time around as well. They did a fun voice effect for you know who (if you know, you know).

Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice for Murderers was one of the funniest books I have read in a very long time. Mrs. Wong is absolutely the interfering mom/grandma/auntie type, and I loved it.

The Savior’s Book Cafe in Another World was a cute manga series that I absolutely devoured. I discovered it on TikTok (I was influenced!) and I don’t regret it! It’s sweet and all the main characters want to do is read! It was a match made in heaven.

The Princess and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich was so adorable. It made me want to eat all the cheese for sure, but above all that, it’s a sweet love story.

Two Wrongs Make A Right is a retelling of Much Ado About Nothing and I couldn’t have been more impressed. I think it handled the neurodivergency well, and was pretty steamy! Also, I have two fake dating stories on this list, I love that trope!

I’ve been averaging about 6 books a month this year, which is down from last year, but I’m not mad at it because any amount of reading is still a good amount of reading!
