May Reading Wrap Up

It's June. May was fast and everything is terrible right now and I'm so very tired (and have the privilege of being tired and being able to disengage when needed). There are lots of organizations that you can donate to if you're able (NAACP, various bail funds, SPLC, CUAPB to name a few).

I stuck to comfort reads again this month and honestly, this is probably going to be a theme for a while. But still reading, so that's something. Oh yeah, and probably a lot of Poirot because he is ridiculous and those rich people murder mysteries are very fun and comforting.

And hey, it's been a while since I've included a pic of the goblin so here's one where he's trying to decide his next read.
