May Wrap Up (2024) // Mafia Reads & The Best Fantasy Romance Book of the Year! ✨📚

📚🌟 May Wrap-Up: A Rollercoaster of Book Ratings! 🎢💔
Hello, book lovers! Welcome back to my channel! May was quite the ride in terms of my reading journey-a real rollercoaster of ratings! While I didn't get through as many books as I hoped, the ones I did tackle offered a mix of highs and lows.
Most of my reading this month was dedicated to the Mafia Romance Readathon, where the intrigue and drama of the underworld captivated my attention. From intense love affairs to dangerous liaisons, I’ll break down each book and share my ratings with you.
🔥 But that’s not all! I’ll also be talking about my new favorite Fantasy Romance book of the year-a title that completely stole my heart and topped my 2024 favorites list. Trust me, you won't want to miss hearing about this one!
If you’ve read any of the books I mentioned or have recommendations for what should be next on my list, drop a comment below! I love hearing from you and discovering new reads based on your suggestions.

[@aprilskylynn]

May wasn't my best month either but on the very first day of June I read Fourth Wing and finally Iron Flame and OMG- I'M KICKING MYSELF FOR NOT PICKING IT UP SOONER!!! I LOVE IT!!! 😆💗💗💗 I just finished my reread of both books and I have so many theories about Onyx Storm! The first time was fun ofcourse but I never had this much of a blast doing a reread ever lol just catching all the little things and clues I missed had me writing down notes. I'm totally ready for book three!!! 😆💕✨🐉⚔📚🌹

[@HonestFiction]

Ahhh I can’t wait for book 3!!! I need to do a reread of Iron Flame before Onyx Storm releases! 🥳

[@aprilskylynn]

I did a terrible job explaining when the moon hatched , but I loved it too

[@HonestFiction]

Girl that book is impossible to summarize, I didn’t do a stellar job either 😅

[@Cm-up9sf]

Read the sword catcher!!!!

[@ExLibris-Alys]

Thank you so much for mentioning me in your WTMH review. I was the one that suggested “verbose” when you were searching for the right word for Sarah Parker’s writing style (when you first tried the book). I was thrilled and giggling like a child when I realised you meant me! You did thank me at the time in the comments, but to be mentioned during a vlog was so lovely of you ☺️💛

[@HonestFiction]

Of course! I legit screamed THATS THE WORD when I read your comment the first time, I had to give you credit! 🤣

[@ExLibris-Alys]

[@AmandasBooktopia]

I still haven’t read When the Moon Hatched yet. I’m hoping I can get to it soon.
