June 2014 Wrap Up
It was a busy month! I came back into the mix, after being away from blogging for a whole month, and I think I did a pretty good job of keeping up :). It’s going to take a little time for me to get fully back on track, but I’m enjoying it. Blogging is fun! So let’s see what I read this month.

Favorite book of the month? It’s a definite tie between Will in Scarlet and The Screaming Staircase. Both were stellar reads, and brought their own brand of awesome to the table! If I had to pick a book I was most disappointed in, it would be Gone Girl. It had so much hype, and we just didn’t jive. Sorry book.
So that’s it for me! How about you? How was your June reading?
