Welcome to my June Wrap Up. I had a pretty great reading month, finishing 9 books (2 books off my TBR). I also received 9 ARCs this month.
I have reviews up or coming up for these books so as usual this is just going to be a brief rundown on each book I read.
Without further ado, let’s get into my June Wrap Up:
Votes For Women! by Mark Wilson: This book was wonderful. This is the second book of Mark Wilson’s that I have read and I wasn’t disappointed. The information was presented in a clear and concise manner making it easy to understand and follow. On top of the fantastic information were the truly stunning illustrations that just elevated this book to a whole new level.
What To Say When You Don’t Know What To Say by Davina Bell: This book was lovely. I loved the message of this book. The situations were relatable and the fantastic illustrations by Hilary Jean Tapper made this a truly engaging little book. I can easily see this book becoming a fast favourite of many young readers and their families.
Magical Zoo by Daisy Edwards: This book was thoroughly entertaining. The story that Daisy Edwards created was fun and easy to follow and the Illustrations by Lee Cosgrove were utterly eye-catching adding an extra layer to this beautiful book. I can easily see this book being devoured by young readers and their families over and over again.
My Friend, Happy by Hannah Campling: This book was absolutely beautiful. The story was sweet and the message was wonderful. The writing was rhyming and lyrical making it easy to follow. Adding to the fantastic story were the stunning Illustrations by Sian Robert. This is one of those books that I can see becoming a much-loved favourite with young readers and their families.
Goodnight Sleepy Unicorn by Sienna Williams: This book was adorable. The writing was musical and fun, and the story was both entertaining and utterly sweet. Complimenting the story perfecting were the truly magical Illustrations by Roger Simo. I honestly don’t have a bad word to say about this book. If you have a young reader in your life get them this book now.
One Million Kisses by Sienna Williams: This book was lovely. The story was beautiful and the imagery drawn upon by the writing was really fun and clever. Benedetta Capriotti’s fantastic illustrations were both bright and bold and perfectly captured the story that Sienna Williams created. This book is a must-have for all young readers and their families.
L Platers by Madonna King: This book was both fascinating and insightful. It has been a while since I was a teenager so I was shocked by just how much teenage girls have to deal with these days. This book was filled with great first-hand experiences that really need to be heard. I am glad that I read this book and I truly believe that it should be read by all parents.
Anne Frank by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara: I loved this book. As I have been making my way through the Little People Big Dreams series I have been waiting for this particular book to enter my collection and now that it is finally here I couldn’t be happier. It was everything I wanted it to be and so much more. This is definitely my new favourite book from the Little People Big World series.
The Bay by Allie Reynolds: I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I loved the suspense and the fact that I was constantly changing my mind about who the killer was. The writing was perfect for the story; it was dramatic and fast-paced. As for the characters, they were all so different yet all hiding something which added to the craziness of the story.
That’s it for my June Wrap Up. I hope you all had a great reading month. Let me know what you guys read this month in the comments section.
Until my July Wrap Up…
Happy Reading…
