TELL ME TUESDAY
LAST. NOW. NEXT.
NUMBER FOUR HUNDRED
MAY READING WRAP-UP
*tidbits*

TELL ME TUESDAY is a floating feature, depending on your reading style, where you tell us what you read last, what you are reading now, what you will be reading next from your TBR pile, and why.
I am curious why people read what they read, so tell me!





ADULT FICTION
STANDALONE
FANTASY
DEMONS - WITCHES
Published May 30th 2023 - NetGalley ARC
I was so disappointed.


MY GOODREADS THOUGHTS
MEMOIR
IMMIGRATION
,CHINESE CULTURE
Published 2021 - Libby Borrow
This was technically my first Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month book, but a lot of people were reading non Asian-American, Asian authors, so I'm also going to count Convenience Store Woman.


CHICK LIT
STANDALONE
MUSIC BUSINESS
1960s - 1970s
ROCK & ROLL
Published 2019 - Libby Borrow
People need to stop promoting "paperback" Romances and Chick Lit as Women's Fiction and Literary Fiction. Literary this book was not! I specifically asked people if this was Chick Lit and they said no, it was Women's Fiction. Good grief.


MY GOODREADS THOUGHTS
PAPERBACK ROMANCE
STANDALONE
ROMANCE
Published 2021 - Own Ebook
This time the publisher was even in on the scam with that cover and publishing it as Womans Fiction. I'm glad this only cost 99¢.

 



ADULT FICTION
STANDALONE
FANTASY
HISTORICAL FICTION
SPARK MAGIC
CIRCUS
FOUND FAMILY
Publishes June 13th 2023 - Edelweiss ARC
This book is stellar!





MEMOIR
JAMAICAN CULTURE
MUSIC
REGGAE
Publishes July 4th 2023 - Edelweiss ARC
This will be my first book for the Carib-A-Thon reading challenge which runs from June 7th to the 17th. This will be the third annual Carib-A-Thon, and I have participated in all of them! Thank you to Akashic Books for also providing a physical copy I can donate to our neighborhood community center.
