Book Haul – June 2023

June was a bit of an odd month. I didn’t add nearly as many books to my physical shelves as I usually do. Thank goodness! However, I did get plenty of great ARCs that will keep me busy through the end of the year. I also picked up a lot of free ebooks from Stuff Your Kindle Day and two giveaways that I won. Those books aren’t included in this haul, though, because there were so many that it would have made this post impossible to finish. lol. I will probably do a separate post for them at some point this month, but we’ll see. Without further ado, here are the ARCs, books, and library acquisitions I got my hands on in June.

Monthly Wrap-Up: June 2023

June was a rough month. I managed to get food poisoning that had me vomiting and nauseous for days.

So, I could read at night without straining my eyes. Well. Enough of my complaining. Let’s get to the books!

Mid-Year Freakout Tag (2023)

If you know where it came from, feel free to tag/link them in the comments. I’ve already finished 128 books this year. So, I’ve got plenty of great options to choose from for this tag. Let’s get started. 🙂

ARC Review – A Power Unbound

Hello, everyone! Today I’m reviewing A Power Unbound by Freya Marske. I don’t usually post on the weekends anymore, but I just finished this book yesterday and want to scream about it. So, you get an extra post. 🙂 I should probably wait until closer to the release date to review it, but I really, really cannot wait that long. Also, a word of warning… Do not expect my review or rating to be super objective. This is one of my favorite series, and I’ll mostly just be talking about all the reasons I LOVE it. Read on below to see what I thought of the finale.
