May was a great reading month for me. It looks like a lot below and it is, but I read 3 novellas, 3 graphic novels (one was wordless), 2 that I was halfway finished with already, and 4 audiobooks. So even though 13 books is the most I’ve ever finished in a month, there were some caveats to it. How was your reading month?
