june 2022 reading wrap-up
FINALLY, I am doing my June wrap-up! And mainly because I tested positive earlier this week, and am now under quarantine, and my brain still gets dizzy when I read/write too much, so this is kind of an easy way out.
This is going to be a short one!

I won’t be writing about each individual books for this wrap up. All the picture books, including the non-fic ones, were digital arcs. Some of them will make an appearance in Kino’s Xmas catalog this year! Maybe!
I’m already in a reading slump NOW, here in July, but looking at this I feel like my slump started around June - I was reading more comics, and only two of the 5 prose novels I read were ARCs. Both ARCs (A Taste of Gold and Iron and So This Is Ever After) were excellent reads, though.
I read a bunch of Marvel, catching up with some series I’ve left for awhile, and continuing my (re)reading of Jason Aaron’s Thor run - or rather, rereading the Jane Foster bits, and reading the other bits for the first time.
Aaaand my vision is now clouding over, so I’m going to end this newsletter here.
Stay safe and drink lots of water!
