Dancing out of May 2021

May was a weird month weather wise, anxiety wise and pain wise. You never really know what is going to happen, right?

The Numbers

In May I read a total of 6 books which makes the total of 2021 45 books read.
Of the 6 books 5 books were fantasy and 1 book was historical .
Out of the 31 days of May I read 13 days which amounted to a total of 2254 pages.

1. The Tangleroot Palace by Marjorie Liu | stars | ARC
2. The Shadow of the Gods (Bloodsworn saga 1) by John Gwynne | 5 stars | ARC
3.  The Rogue’s Seduction (Seduction 3) by Lauren Smith | 3 stars
4. Crime and Poetry (Magical Bookshop 1) by Amanda Flower | 4 stars
5. The Boneshard Daughter (The Drowning Empire 1) by Andrea Stewart | 4 stars
6. The Empress of Salt and Fortune (The Singing Hills Cycle 1) by Nghi Vo | 4 stars

⌘ This was a weird month weather wise. It was a lot colder than last year and I was desperately craving some sun instead of all the rain we got. We finally got better weather in the last few days of May and start of June.

⌘ I signed up to do a market with In Line with Annemieke in July. It will be my very first market and I am both excited and anxious. I’ve been spending a lot of time on that. Preparing and making new items for it. Its been taking up a lot of time.

⌘ At the end of the month I got a birthmark removed from the inside of my elbow. Which is a shitty place. It hurt more afterwards than I anticipated so there was less happening here at the end of May and start of June. And on the last day of May I also got my second shot in the same arm so that was a whole lot of pain.
