Hello and welcome to another TBR post! This month my reading is going to be a bit more relaxed than it was last month with the #OWLsReathaon. I still cannot believe I read so much! Anyway, I just have a few books on my TBR I really wanted to get to. Without more of a delay, on to the books!
Middlegame by Seanan McGuire, picked by Evelyn over at evelynreads.com. I am really excited to be giving this a go this month. I have read about 4 of their books already and I really enjoyed them. I know this one has met some mixed feelings so I am really excited to see if I end up loving it or not.
The Canary Keeper by Clare Carson, gifted by Adrianna over at romancebookbinge.com. I am so grateful to be able to read this in May. I have been wanting to read this book for months, maybe even over a year? May is the month to get it read!
The Magicians Land by Lev Grossman, buddy reading with Reg from bookishinbed and Jenna from jkimexploring. I cannot wait to see what the last book in this series is going to bring. This series could easily become one of my favorites, I am so glad that we ended up reading this together because I might not have ever read it. Also, with that ending in book 2, I need to know what happens next!
The Glass Hotel by Emily St. John Mandel, I picked this up at my local bookstore because it was given the title of ‘April 2020 Indie Next List #1 Great Read’ on indiebound.org. The description confused me quite a bit, but it said a few of my key words; ghost, hotel, and island. So, I bought it to support my local store.
The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon, what can I say? This is book 5 in the series and I am ready to get it read!
The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare, this is my May Shakespeare as voted by on my twitter account. I actually know nothing about this play at the time of writing this, but since I loved Macbeth I am more excited about reading his works than ever before.
What are you reading in May? Are there any releases you are looking forward to?
Ooh I really hope you love Middlegame!
I just finished listening to The fiery cross, really liked it, but I felt like it took me forever haha!

I feel like I will enjoy it! I just finished The Fiery Cross today, I really liked it too. It took me about 10 days to get through, but I enjoyed the journey. I ordered the next books so I can continue in a month or so.

I’m glad you’re excited to read it! I was thinking doing the entire series was either going to be really good or really bad so hopefully Frankenstein series is just as successful
