June Wrap up - Book Haul & What to Expect Next Month

Hi there, dear blog reader.

Welcome to the blog!

The first half of 2019 is over and the school year is over in two weeks.

I'm totally having the summer-feeling already, but I'm also tired all the time.

That's how it works for teachers, they're just done at the end of the school year.

Don't feel like reading at all when I come home from work, I just want to lay down and sleep all day, LOL.

I am on track with my Goodreads Challenge. I've read 41 / 75 books so I'm doing fine!

I can't wait for the summer break, I'm going to Croatia with my boyfriend and I'm so excited!

What plans do you have for this summer?!

Have a GREAT reading/chilling month full of sun 🏖

Synopsis
John Rothstein, an iconic author who created a famous character, Jimmy Gold, but who hasn’t published a book for decades. Morris Bellamy is livid, not just because Rothstein has stopped providing books, but because the nonconformist Jimmy Gold has sold out for a career in advertising. Morris kills Rothstein and empties his safe of cash, yes, but the real treasure is a trove of notebooks containing at least one more Gold novel.

Morris hides the money and the notebooks, and then he is locked away for another crime. Decades later, a boy named Pete Saubers finds the treasure, and now it is Pete and his family that Bill Hodges, Holly Gibney, and Jerome Robinson must rescue from the ever-more deranged and vengeful Morris when he’s released from prison after thirty-five years.

Synopsis
The Wife Project is complete, and Don and Rosie are happily married and living in New York. But they're about to face a new challenge because - surprise - Rosie is pregnant.

Don sets about learning the protocols of becoming a father, but his unusual research style gets him into trouble with the law. Fortunately his best friend Gene is on hand to offer advice: he's left Claudia and moved in with Don and Rosie.

As Don tries to schedule time for pregnancy research, getting Gene and Claudia to reconcile, servicing the industrial refrigeration unit that occupies half his apartment, helping Dave the Baseball Fan save his business, and staying on the right side of Lydia the social worker, he almost misses the biggest problem of all: he might lose Rosie when she needs him the most.
