Like most of the year, most of the books I’ve gotten this month are romances, but I did pick up a few YA as well. I’m also trying to branch out in the romances that I’m reading as well, so trying so new to me authors. Different genres of romances and things along those lines. I’m really excited about a lot of these books. Nevertheless, let’s get right into it and see what I got this June.

I Didn’t Get Too Many This Month | May Haul

May 29, 2022

I did really well this month. I wasn’t on a ban per se but I knew that I would be buying a few books next month so I wanted to try and be a little better this month. And I felt that I sort of accomplished that. 

I got a range of romance books this month and I’m really excited to get stuck in them. I also got a few YA as well. Which I’m excited about. Most of the books this month have come from Fiction and Friction, Ebooks or from work. But let’s get right into it. Check out the books that I got in May.

I Did Well This Month | April Haul

I Did Well This Month | April Haul

Apr 28, 2022

I didn’t buy that many books in April and I feel great about it. I did get a few, not going to lie. However, I also got a fair few for free. Some as gifts and some as arcs. I also got a good chuck on sale as well. Which really helped in regards to my spending. 

I got a range of books this month, but like most of my reading the past two years, a lot was romance. I’ve not been reading a lot of young adult. I am still here and there so you will see a little of it, but it’s mostly been romance. Nevertheless, enough chat, let’s get into it. Here are the books I bought and received this April.

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
