When the Moon Hatched – This is definitely in the running to be my favorite book of the year. It feels like this year’s Fourth Wing.
Firefly Lane – Kristin Hannah destroyed me in the middle of the night while I was on vacation. I’d watched the first season of the TV series, but the book hits so much harder.
I was so excited to read two new High Republic releases in June, and I was fully immersed in When the Moon Hatched. Orlando, a Biography was my classic pick of the month. I finished listening to the Graphic Audio versions of ACOTAR with ACOSF this month. I read Tell Me Lies so I could then watch the TV series, but the book was way better. Almost all my reads this month were 4-5 stars, so it was a good reading month!
