How many books do you own?? Or, how do you like to organize your bookshelves??
Happy Sunday, Bookworms! Do you know how many books you own? Last time I counted, (and that was sometime last year), I own well over 1,000 books. I’ve added a lot more since then as well. As you can see above, the stacks and stacks of books are getting a little out of control. But, I am planning to do an unhaul soon and I will hopefully have a few boxes worth to send to donations. And I try to organize my shelves by genre and author, but it doesn’t always work out the way I want it to. What about you guys? Do you know how many books you own? And how do you organize your shelves?

Who are some of your favorite fictional moms??
Happy Sunday, Bookworms! And Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas as well!
Do you have any favorite fictional moms? I love Tessa Gray, who is also one of my most favorite characters ever. She’s such a great mom in The Last Hours series. Who are your favorite moms??

What books are you hoping to read in May??
Happy first day of May, Bookworms! Are you guys ready for a brand new month of reading? May is going to be a great month for new releases! I have quite a few of them on my reading list for this month. And there are just SO many others books that I want to read this month as well, I’m having a hard time picking which to go with. Part of me wants to do a Cozy Murder Mystery May theme, but I also want to read all the new romance I got recently, and catch up on my TBR from previous months, and read the books I started but haven’t finished, AND read all the new releases … I definitely have way too many options. I am for sure starting my yearly reread of *The Remnant Chronicles* this month and I am SOOOO excited to get back to one of my most favorite worlds! Swipe above to see it and a few of the other books I’m for sure hoping to read this month. Anyways … What about you guys? What are you excited to read this month??
And a new month means a new book challenge! Swipe above to grab the May Challenge graphic, and I hope you’ll join me for another month of fun! I’m definitely going to try to do a better job with my socials this month! Sorry I’ve been MIA lately!
