In which I share with you the books I was able to finish in the month of June and some of my thoughts on each (without spoilers!) This month I've already begun "The Selection" series and I'm really looking forward to finishing the whole series!
What books have you been reading lately?
ALSO! Super exciting news!:
1) I just launched a Patreon campaign! If you guys have a minute I would so, so appreciate it if you would check it out. Please don't feel obligated to look OR pledge, it's sort of just a gigantic online tip jar if you enjoy my content and feel like it. (: patreon.com/malaray
2) As of today I will be moving to a TWO video per week format! I will now be releasing videos on Tuesdays AND Thursdays!
