Hi, I’m Christi and I read a lot of books! I’m here today with the Mid Year Book Freak Out Tag for 2026. I love doing this video every year and wrapping up the first half of the year with the best and worst books I’ve read so far, as well as new to me authors, upcoming releases, books that made me cry, books I still want to read in the year, etc! Let me know if you've read any of these or what books you’ve loved (or haven’t loved) so far this year. Thanks for watching!
