Alice and the Giant Bookshelf | June TBR | Trying not to Overcommit! A.K.A. I need to read books from my shelves! @AliceandtheGiantBookshelf | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to be kinder to myself in June! As the Women's Prize season comes to a close, I need to get back to reading lots of books from my neglected shelves. I do have some plans for reading in June: three book clubs and three buddy reads. I wasn't going to participate in any readathons, but at the last moment I decided to read a book from my shelf for CaribAThon. All the details of other channels mentioned are below.
Do let me know in the comments what you're planning to read in June. Thanks for watching.
