Updates

I've been on a reading kick the past few days. I am so excited to share my May Wrap Up with you all tomorrow. I am currently reading Dr. Chase Hudson by Jessica Gadziala. I'm 16% in and loving it. I really loved the first book The Sex Surrogate. Gave me Fifty Shades vibes. I am hoping to finish it before midnight tonight so it can be included in my May Wrap Up.

Bout of Books came at a time I really need help getting back into the flow of reading every day and night. The next one is in August. I will be taking part in it.

I actually managed to get reading done on a very busy weekend. On Friday night I spent time with my family. Saturday was racing night.... ughhh our luck is crap at the moment. I am hopeful my brother will finish a race this coming Saturday. Sunday was more time with my family. Monday was a lazy day.

This is my Friday reads and weekend reading plans. I'm currently reading 2 books. I'm listening to Melissa Explains It All: Tales from My Abnormally Normal Life on my audiobooks on my Kindle. I'm 12% in and liking it so far.

I'm also reading on my kindle Backseat With The Millionaire by Lilah May , currently at 14%.
