YA Summer Reads Bingo Update

When I first started this, I so didn’t think that I would be so into this. But literally, apparently my days from being into bingo as a kid has come back to haunt me and I’m in deep.

If you remember from a few weeks ago, I posted about me beginning the glorious YA Summer Reads Bingo put on by Kyera @ Kyera’s Library. It’s not to late to get in on the bingo action, especially since you can use all your books from June & July. It’s so much, gals and guys, and I so recommend joining in.

ALSO, I AM 7 BOOKS AWAY FROM A FULL BLOWOUT, AND I CAN’T DEAL WITH IT. Here are some ideas if you wanted to join in.

ROW 1

A Contemporary Read – It’s Not You, It’s Me by Stephanie Kate-Strohm =- so very, very cute

A Book by a Female Author – The Disappearances by Emily Bain Murphy so much wonderfulness

A Book Genre That You Don’t Normally Read – Wild Irish Women (non-fiction) by Marian Broderick – um, thank you, glorious book bingo, because I finially finished this book that has been sitting on my currently reading shelf for more than a year.
