June 2022 Book Haul

Another 12 books hauled, most of these are library books. I have 1 preordered book and 3 Netgalley books as well. I've read 6 with 6 left. I'm sitting at about 52% read of the books hauled this year, which is great. Like I talked about last month, I'd love to be under 20 books unread at the end of the year. We'll see what happens.

Top Ten Most Anticipated Books Releasing In the Second Half of 2022

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. More information here.

A belated Top Ten Tuesday because I just got back from a week in Minnesota and missed this prompt. I'm up to 163 books on my 2022 shelf, so I definitely have added some since the beginning of the year. Here's what I'm looking forward to:

July 2022 TBR & Monthly Challenge

My favorite blurb, as always: In 2022, I'm continuing to participate in the Words & Whimsy Reading Challenge (new challenge each month). You sign up and are split into teams and finish books for points. They also have a mini game, photo challenge, and charity challenge to get points for your team as well.

So first and foremost, I finished my Goodreads challenge in June - I hit 52 books! I also finished my Netgalley challenge in June as well. Pretty close on my other challenges as well, so I have high hopes to finish them all this year.

June was an improvement from May and I finished 12 books and DNF'd 1 book. I do have 3 books on my TBR from May that I did not read (2 that I started) but I wanted to do a nice fresh TBR for July. I'm traveling to Minnesota for a week in July and I wanted to choose some easy reads that I don't have to put much thought into. So I'm going to try and read books 2 through 6 of the Pucked series by Helena Hunting. It's hockey smut. Then a few rom-com Netgalley books. And then a reverse harem book that everyone has recommended! Band camp also takes place this month and I've volunteered for a couple water/sunscreen shifts, so it should be a fairly busy month and I don't want any added pressure. :)

My TBR for July:

• For Butter or Worse by Erin La Rosa
• Booked on a Feeling by Jayci Lee
• Pucked Up by Helena Hunting
• Pucked Over by Helena Hunting
• Forever Pucked by Helena Hunting
• Pucked Off by Helena Hunting
• Pucked Love by Helena Hunting
• Desperate Measures by Katee Roberts
  

2021 READING CHALLENGES: should be at 50% 
Goodreads Challenge: 60/52 books - 115% COMPLETED 6/8
Series Challenge: 15/20 series - 75% AHEAD!
Netgalley Challenge: 15/13 books - 115% COMPLETED 6/8
Haul It Challenge: 28/30 books - 93% AHEAD!

What are you planning on reading in July?
