Normally at the end of the month I do my monthly book haul along with my monthly wrap up. However, this month I’m doing it separately because I simply got too many books this month. Normally I have three or four titles which isn’t too bad at all. June…well, June made my wallet cry.

Mid Year Freak Out Tag | 2020
We’ve seen it all over the bookish blogs and booktube for years. It is time, once again, for the Mid Year Freak Out Tag!

I don’t know about you but this whole year has me out of whack. First the weather has been off since January, then COVID and the chaos and fear that has come with it, and now it is the end of May and I have no idea how we ended up here. I also went back to work this month after taking a leave of absence because of said COVID which certainly hasn’t helped.
