There are just so many great books I am trying to get to, I've been reading a lot and loving a lot, but these are my top picks for May.
Fury Bound, Sable Sorensen
The anticipated sequel to Dire Bound, a standout Romantasy from last year. Gripped from page one, I couldn’t put it down. Wolves, yearning, and a fierce queen? Loved it.
The Correspondant - Virginia Evans
Worth all the hype it had for the last year. A sweet, sincere recollection of a life in letters, emails, notes. I laughed and cried and hope everyone reads it.
Phoebe Berman's Gonna Lose It - Brooke Averick
A standout debut romance from the internet’s biggest Zac Efron lover. The most wholesome, genuine, authentic love story and a 30 year old finding her way through.
The Deal - Elle Kennedy
Revisited this in preparation for the Off Campus series, out now on Prime. Hockey men at their best and a sweet female main character we root for the whole way through. Read the book, then watch the series (please.)
Margo's Got Money Troubles - Rufi Thorpe
An endearing take on the accidental pregnancy trope, add in toxic parental relationships, a pro-wrestler and an OnlyFans account, and you’ve got a very entertaining read. Also now a show on AppleTV+
