It was a pretty good month for me, as far as this challenge goes. I read eight books, but I’ve gotta be honest: I’m not sure I retained much from any of them. Lol. I’ve just been so tired lately. I work a lot, then I have free time and try to maintain some semblance of a social life, along with carving out an hour here and there to do other things I enjoy (blogging, writing short stories, reading).

Being an adult is a total scam.

Anyway, this month’s update is going to be brief. I’m not going to bother with even a short “review.” I’m simply going to share what I read and my ratings. Enjoy!

The Dead Key (DM Pulley)

The Nightmare Man (JH Markert)

Sinister Summer (Colleen Gleason)

Candy Coated Murder (Kate Bell, Kathleen Suzette)

The Collector Series (Dot Hutchison)

I will encourage y’all to check out The Collector series – The Butterfly Garden, The Roses of May, The Summer Children, and The Vanishing Season. I devoured them. The characters were well-written, funny and sarcastic and so very human. The stories were dark but sprinkled with hope and a silver lining each time. I absolutely adored these books.
