June 2019 was such a busy month! I when to BookCon for a day, an Uber drove off with my bags the day I tried to go home, I read 9 whole books, and I brought home 48 more. My TBR is going to kill me if my mom doesn’t first. Not to mention all the guest posts I hosted for 30 Days of Pride. It was a lot of work, but I’m so happy with the result, and I hope to do it again next year! (Now to switch gears into Shattering Stigmas 5.0…)
