2. June 17 is Take a Road Trip Day. Pick books with road trips or travel of some kind.

3. June 21 is National Selfie Day. Pick books with a face/faces on the cover.

In!

In :)

I'll sit out and let you two pick for each other this month. If either needs or wants more though let me know.

Alright! @elena anything in particular you’re in the mood for?

I’m as usual pretty open to whatever but bonus points if it’s on my TBR already

@Laura I've tried to pick the books from your TBR :) As for me, this time I want preferably epic fantasy, space opera, cozy mystery or something super funny.

1. June 8th is Name Your Poison Day. Pick books with apothecaries, taste testers, etc. Or pick books with alcohol or desserts on the cover.
- technically there are no apothecaries, taste testers or desserts in the book, but I think it's somehow fits the theme of the prompt and actually at some point this summer I'm also going to re-read it.

2. June 17 is Take a Road Trip Day. Pick books with road trips or travel of some kind.
- I don't remember whether this book has a travel part but the series definitely has. It's not as good as other Sanderson's books but it's very unique and pretty interesting.
- the first book was interesting and I think this one is going to be better with all the quest part and the dragons...
- not a typical travel but time travel and a very interesting book and the series.
- oh this book is one of my favourite! So good!

3. June 21 is National Selfie Day. Pick books with a face/faces on the cover.
- I didn't read a description, reviews, I just know that its super-hyped now and am afraid to try this one. Though I really want to hear your thoughts on it if you choose the book.
- I love the concept and the covers of the books in the series and maybe it's going to be a nice fun easy read.
- one more witch book and the description is great, I think you should try it.

Oo thank you! I already read Boss Witch and it was cute!

I think I might go for Shara Wheeler because I am curious

For you, here are my picks:

1. June 8th is Name Your Poison Day. Pick books with apothecaries, taste testers, etc. Or pick books with alcohol or desserts on the cover.

- fantasy series that involves a taste tester!

2. June 17 is Take a Road Trip Day. Pick books with road trips or travel of some kind.


- this actually made me laugh out loud in parts!

- I loved this and it does involve travel - might be my favourite of Henry's and it definitely had its funny moments!

Aurora Burning - you must continue this series and it is kind of space opera and involves travel

- same as for Aurora Burning!

- this series is unusual in its mixed media format but also a good one! and kind of space opera-y and involves travel


Let me know if you need more!

@Laura let me know what you think about Shara, I'm so glad and excited you've picked this one!
Also thank you for the recs. Now I'm lost, I want to read all the books from the list 🤣. Sooo... let's decide! I think I'm going to leave Furiously Happy for the time when I really need a great portion of happiness. I don't have Book Lovers and Cytonic now and don't want to buy more books. It leaves Poison Study, Aurora and Illuminae... I'll let you know when I start one :D Really, so hard to pick!

I‘m glad! And I look forward to seeing what you read

Poison study gets my vote! Love those books
Furiously Happy also made me laugh out loud too. Didnt like her other book though.

I decided to go for Aurora first :) And I'm such a strange person, yesterday I decided not to buy more books and bought 6! How is that even possible?

😂😂 I feel this

I feel that too!! Happens too often the I am not going to buy any more until I read some I own. Ooops I went to the book store and left with 10

I finished Shara Wheeler - it was enjoyable but I'm not going to be raving about it. I kind of enjoyed the side characters more than the MCs!

@Laura it's great you've enjoyed it!

@Elena - how did you get on?

@Brittany - are we not doing these anymore?

@Laura shame on me! Haven't started yet. I've been too busy in June :( and I think this summer is going to be very busy for me.

But I want to continue doing PIFM :)

I will put one up for August! Sorry life has been busy and I kind of disappeared.

No problem! Was just checking in ❤️

No problem :) Same here, life just got too busy.

Absolutely! Glad you checked in, shows me there's still interest. I'm going to try to get on a little more again. Life has just been a good kind of busy lately.
