May Wrap-Up: Reviews, Reading Challenges, etc.

Big thanks to May for finally pulling me out of reading/blgging slump. I finally feel like I’m back to my old self again!

Nothing real exciting happened to me this past month, other than just work. Kids, never grow up and get a real job. If Peter Pan comes calling, then you better take your ass over to Neverland and have a good time for me! 😉

Books Read

  • Startup by Doree Shafrir – 4/5 stars, REVIEW
  • Alias Hook by Lisa Jensen – 4/5 stars, REVIEW
  • Armada by Ernest Cline – 3/5 stars, REVIEW

I think I had a really good reading month in May. I enjoyed all of the books that I read for the most part and hope that that trend continues through June as well!
