May 2016 Wrap Up

This was another pretty great reading month. I had participated in the Clean Sweep ARC Challenge which pushed me to read a big majority of the arcs I had on my shelf. I do still have a couple left to get to (and a few newer ones) but I'm glad to have had that push to finish most of them. I also joined in on the Bout of Books Readathon which so far is my favorite readathon and I always try to participate in it. 
I read 12 books this month and it would have been more but I started Winter by Marissa Meyer halfway through the month and ended up taking FOREVER to finish it. It took up a lot of time and I only read a few short books during that time so I feel like I could have read at least 2 more big books in the time it took me to read Winter but I'm trying to finish up that series so I guess it was worth it.

If you'd like to see what I read vs. what I didn't get around to, you can check out my MY MAY TBR.
