I’m a bit late with this post, but I’ve been busy with band interviews and preparing to share my most recent one with Little Evil!

I read seven books in June. It was too hot to leave my house (except to work), so I curled up in the A/C and lost myself in someone else’s imagination. Here are the novels I finished with my ratings.

***

1. It’s Not Her (Mary Kubica)

Rating: 4/5

2. Incidents Around the House (Josh Malerman)

Rating: 1/5

3. The Lying Game (Ruth Ware)

Rating: 3/5

4. Malice House (Megan Shepherd)

Rating: 4/5

5. What Feasts at Night (T. Kingfisher)

Rating: 4/5

6. The Silent Patient (Alex Michaelides)

Rating: 4/5

7. Penpal (Dathan Auerbach)

Rating: 3.5/5

Goodreads Reading Challenge 2026 [May]

May 31, 2026 — Leave a comment

I read eight books this month! I’m getting back up to my usual speed, which is pretty amazing considering how busy I’ve been.

I’m still on track to finish the challenge, but I don’t know if I’ll be increasing my goal like I had to last year. If things stay this hectic (in a good way this time), then I’ll barely reach 80.

Anyway, here are the books I finished in May, with my ratings.

***

1. The Island (Natasha Preston)

Rating: 2.5/5

2. Odd Hours (Dean Koontz)

Rating: 3/5

3. What Moves the Dead (T. Kingfisher)

Rating: 4/5

4. Dead Girls First (Zia Rayyan)

Rating: 3.5/5

5. The Queen (Nick Cutter)

Rating: 4/5

6. The Ghostly Grounds: Murder and Breakfast (Sophie Love)

Rating: 3/5

7. Odd Apocalypse (Dean Koontz)

Rating: 2.5/5

8. The Night Circus (Erin Morgenstern)

Rating: 5/5

I am currently reading What Feasts at Night (T. Kingfisher) and The Lying Game (Ruth Ware).
