June Wrap Up

I had a good reading month in June. I read six books. I did DNF a couple, but for the most part, the books I read were really good. Or at least quick and easy to get through. Here are the books I read and what I thought about them.

Wooing Cadie McCaffrey

Cute rom-com. I struggled a bit to suspend my disbelief in a few places, but it was a quick, charming read. I did a full review here.


The Gown

I loved this book. It will probably be one of my favorites of the year. I'm a bit obsessed with the royal family anyway, and this book has just enabled me further. I highly recommend this novel if you enjoyed the Netflix series The Crown. It's so well researched, and I loved the characters. This is a mostly heart warming, clean read, but there one violent scene that may cause some triggers.


The Accidental Beauty Queen

This was a fun little rom-com. I read it in a couple of days. It's set in Orlando, FL which is a huge plus for this Floridian. The sisterly love is wonderful, and the romance was a lot of fun. I don't know a lot about pageant culture, but I thought this book handled it well. Highly recommended.


All Manner of Things

I did a full review of this book here. I loved it.


Hope and Other Punchlines

I didn't really care for this one. I know that I'm not the intended audience, but one of the characters just drove me insane. He was supposed to be funny, but I found him to be irritating. The story never really took off for me because of that. This was my most disappointing book of the month.


In His Image

This is a reread. If your looking for theology instead of Christian living, you should read this one. It's amazing. It's very readable. There are verses at the end of each chapter for further study and study questions as well of you want to turn it into more of a Bible study. Highly recommended.

Have you read any of these books? Let me know in the comments.
