Current Read - The Succubus’s Prize by Katee Robert

Books I Gave Up On (1) - Nerdy Bookish Friends was reading The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Applegate. I tried three times this month to get into it and it just didn’t happen. The book was very character focused and I just couldn’t. I may pick it up later this year, but now is definitely not the time.

Books Bought/Received (2) - During our travels, I bought a whole stack of homeschool books that I’m not including in this total. For me, I only bought two books. I grabbed The Oregon Trail by Rinker Buck from Nevermore Used Books in Toledo OH. I also preordered Dark Restraint by Katee Robert.
