Taking it Easy

Last month on I Heart Romance & YA

 

Hello, Wormies! After my exhausting month, I am trying to take it easy and relax. Hopefully, this strategy will work and I’ll be back and be reenergized. I’m creating something right now and I can’t wait to share it with you sometime next month or so.

The highlights of this month for me. It’s also official and I can share it with everyone!

Yes! I will be moderating a panel with these amazing Filipino authors: authors Tif Marcelo (The Key To Happily Ever After), Mia Hopkins (Thirsty), Maida Malby (Boracay Vows), and Sarah Smith (Faker) at The Ripped Bodice! RSVP here and I’ll see you there!

I’m so excited about this event because it’s celebrating Filipino authors and my very first moderator gig!

I also saw Tessa Bailey last Saturday! I am so happy I met her! It was an awesome event with Robin Bielman and Samanthe Beck!

 

Challenges

 

Reading Progress

While I was in a slump, I was able to read 8 books and I’m now up to 70 this year! However, I had 2 DNF last month, so I technically read only 6 books.

 

I also finally read Halfway Girl and I was very disappointed. It’s a novella and it really read like one and it felt rushed. But as of now, it’s the shortest book I read this month.

 

Must Read Book of the Month

The Rogue King by Abigail Owen

I finished reading The Rogue King a couple of nights ago and it was amazing! I gave it 4.5 stars! I am so excited to read the rest of the series! My full review will be up tomorrow!

I am totally getting hooked to dragon shifters!

      Thank you! I’m so excited to moderate! I’m super nervous, though! This is my first time moderating a panel!

    Congrats on new plans, I can’t wait to see what you have in store there!! I wish I could go to the panel at the Ripped Bodice but I have a trip planned for Chicago and Philly but I do plan on coming to LA very very soon!!

    For someone in a slump, you sure are productive. 😐
    That must mean I am buried… alive.
