    Great video. My book for May was The Power of the Dog by Don Winslow. It was a great read about a DEA agent chasing two brothers who run a cartel. Fantastic character build up, lots of depth and very well written. So far my book of the year.

      That is awesome! I have yet to read any Don Winslow, but I have heard nothing but good things about his stuff!! May you have many other great reads this year. :) Thanks for watching! :)

    Oh wow, I need to read What Have We Here?. I only know him from Star Wars and would love to know more about his life. Just put a hold in Libby for it. Very interesting about the Matt Haig book. I’m curious about it...and glad you has a 5 star Sanderson book! I’ve still never read a single one from him! 😬 nice to see the follow up of the fate The Coil 😂 🔥

      It was an interesting read, and it added some movies to my list of ones to look for. lol He did a baseball movie called 'The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings' with Richard Pryor and James Earl Jones that I had never heard of, but I am so intrigued by it. ;p The Matt Haig book was good, but make sure you are up for something a bit more bleak. It ain't no 'The Comfort Book.' Although that one might be a good one to read right after it. :P May 'The Coil' rest in pieces! Thanks for watching! :)

    My high point for the month of May was the classic Henry James novel (novella) The Turn of the Screw. I totally loved it and wanted it to keep on going. Currently I'm taking a dive into the world of distopian novels (new territory for me) with Dies The Fire, the first of a long series by S.M. Stirling.

      Never read 'The Turn of the Screw' but it is one I should probably get to some day! Glad to hear you enjoyed it. :) I have heard of that S. M. Stirling series. Isn't there like 16 books in it?? Some of those huge series commitments scare me. lol Thanks for watching! :)

    Ballad was one of my first reviews, it was outside my normal wheelhouse but I enjoyed it quite a bit, I have since read changeling which I enjoyed, and I am reading Lone Woman in July. I need to reread Mistborn 1 as it's been so long and then crack on I think.Looks like you had a bit of an uneven month,here's to a consistently better June.

      Ballad was such a unique little novella that I was never sure what was going to happen next. I am really enjoying the Mistborn trilogy and can't wait to crack open the third book later this month. June has already been better than May, and I hope your reading is going great also! Thanks for watching! :)

    Still one book more than last year! Love the fire 😂😂 so many bad book and sexy chin jokes for the rest of the year. I thought the Matt Haig book was gonna be cute at first. Dad paying attention and looking out for his little girl, and then bam nope! 😂 you had quite the all over month. Glad there was some good to cancel out the book which shall not be mentioned 😂 Hope June goes better for you!

      I mean, was there any other way for me to get rid of that book?? ;p Yeah, Matt Haig has written plenty of books that usually have a fun streak in them somewhere, but that was not the case at all with this one. Like I said, it was good, but it is a hard one to read. June has been going great so far. Thanks for watching! :)
