Hello,

I've been knocked out for a month and so but now, I'm back for good (I hope). During the past month, I've been trying to read a lot and somehow I failed. I've read several manga volumes though which really helped my Goodreads Reading Challenge. lol. I'll have all of them over at my June-July Roundup which I'm hoping to have up before the week ends.

I got these books aside from buying most of them, of course, from my co-worker at the bookstore, and from the recent Book Worms Unite 2.0 which was a really great bookish event.

Also, tell me which of these I should read ASAP (I've read Always and Forever, Lara Jean as well as Platinum End, Vols.1-2 btw). Help me decide! Since I started working on a bookstore, my adult fiction horizon widened which I AM SO GLAD ABOUT. I'll get around more adult fictions, historical non-fictions, and manga volumes than ever!

Also, last thing, check out my review of A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. It's easily one of my fave 2017 reads. It's part-humorous, part-heartwarming, and part-heartbreaking. It's a really fantastic read!

  1. I really love Erik Larson. His non-fiction books are so readable; it's not dry like a lot of history books can be.

    1. no worries about that, Uma. I've been gone from blogging as well. Good luck with postgrad studies!! :D

      When Dimple Met Rishi it is then. A contemporary romance sounds like a fantastic read especially with my stressed out schedule. working at a bookstore has its awesome perks -- i get to read the books we sell, omg! :D
