Sunday Salon: June Reading Reflections

It's hard to believe but we are at the end of June. That means a busy week coming up for me because end of financial year has a big impact in my role, but from a blogging perspective it seems like a good time to do a half yearly summary which I will do next weekend. First though, let's talk about June. Like last month, my reading was down a bit compared to the rest of the year as I am still firmly sucked into stupid Facebook games world!

You might notice that I had a rare 5/5 read this month which is always a nice bonus!

Here's the books I read during June:

Own the Wind by Kristen Ashley 3.5/5
Undercover by Keith Bulfin 4/5
Cascade by Maryanne O'Hara 4.5/5
The Book of Lost Fragrances by M J Rose 4/5 (Audiobook)
Taking a Chance by Deborah Burrows 4/5
Play with Me by Alisha Rai 4/5
Fire Inside by Kristen Ashley 4/5
Lighthouse Bay by Kimberley Freeman 5/5
Chu's Day by Neil Gaiman 4/5
Chasing Fire by Nora Roberts 4.5/5 (Audiobook)
The Newcomer by Robyn Carr 3.5/5
The Autumn Bride by Anne Gracie 4/5
Making it Last by Ruthie Knox 4.5/5
Captivation by Nicola Moriarty 3/5
Flirting with Disaster by Ruthie Knox 4/5
Lick by Kylie Scott 4.5/5

  1. Congrats on finishing WIAN -- if you have. :)

    Games can be evil; they're so addictive

  2. That's a lot of reading! I know what you mean about the Facebook games. I'm about to go play one now! ;-)

  3. Cascade was a great read for me; I've had a few five star books this year. It has been a pleasant surprise.

    1. I was relieved to like it, because I wasn't that fond of her latest book. I think the narrator of the audiobook definitely helped the enjoyment factor too.

  5. I must read an Anne Gracie book - have read lots of good things. And as always, I'm impressed by the number of books you read!
