Monthly Recap [June 2015]

Posted June 30, 2015 by Stephanie in Wrap Up / 0 Comments

So, I’m going to do this new thing monthly where I let you guys know a little bit more about me. I used to do this over on Bookish Lifestyle. But since I’m not there anymore, I decided to bring over a version of the Bookish Digest over here. I’ll let you know what my favorite read was for the month and I’ll link up some of my posts from the month as well as give you guys some news or information about my life.
My pick for the month of June:

Title: A Court of Thorns and Roses
Author: Sarah J. Maas
Series: ACOTAR #1
Genre: New Adult, Fantasy, Romance, Fairytale Retelling, Paranormal, Magic
Published By: Bloomsbury on May 5, 2015
My review

A thrilling, seductive new series from New York Times bestselling author Sarah J. Maas, blending Beauty and the Beast with faerie lore.

When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin—one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.

As she dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning she’s been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an ancient, wicked shadow grows over the faerie lands, and Feyre must find a way to stop it . . . or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.

Perfect for fans of Kristin Cashore and George R. R. Martin, this first book in a sexy and action-packed new series is impossible to put down!

What happened in June:
1. I started up a book club with a blogging and writing friend, Dana from Dana Square! It’s awesome, she’s awesome. And I think you should check it out and check Dana out!
2. June was full of: truck meets, baptisms, 1st birthdays, bridal showers, and grad parties! We were so busy this month!
3. Joe and I started training with a personal trainer. It’s going okay…
What I’m looking forward to for July:
1. Camp NaNoWriMo! I’ll be posting my updates for this throughout the month! But I have an awesome cabin that Dana and I started! It’s going to be the best NaNo yet; I just know it!
2. Fourth of July!!! I love fireworks and I love the party that we have every year with our friends!
3. Picking a date for the wedding. This just needs to be done already. Joe and I HAVE to pick and solidify a date so that we can start getting this wedding started!
Let’s talk about it!
