Hello Gemmies! Can you believe we are already six months into the new year? Time is really flying by. I have been loving fantasy romance and have been going through different series like crazy! All of the books I read were very enjoyable. I was able to read a total of 29 books/manga in June.
I actually didn't set any bookish goals for myself this month beyond finishing The Vale of The Stars series by Juliette Cross. Which I couldn't do since the audiobook release for the last book Hunt The Dragon was moved to July 19th. I have been going through Juliette's backlist and man I have not come across a bad book yet. She has become one of my favorite authors and now she is an auto buy author for me. If you haven't read her Darkwing or Vale of Stars series......do it! These two are companion series that are darker fantasy, with lots of steam, mystery, and dragon hybrids! Ugh I can't get enough of them!
For my overall reading experience, I had a pretty great time. I really enjoyed everything I read this month. Every title was at least 3 gems and up. I also discovered the Deep In Your Veins Series by Suzanne Wright, which I absolutely loved! I ended up reading all seven books within a week's time! I also really liked the Court of Starlight and Darkness series by Linsey Hall. Here is the full listing of all the books and manga that I read.
