i filled every square this month.

honestly, one of the best things about these bingo boards has been discovering books i probably wouldn't have reached for otherwise. i'm learning what i like, what i don't, and giving new authors and series a chance.

this month taught me that i love sci-fi a lot more in movies and shows than i do in books. at least so far.

but maybe that's just a sign that i should try writing the sci-fi story i wish existed.

on to next month's board.

week four of the may bingo board

i only have one square left now: we’re not alone

honestly i’ll probably finish the board tonight

this month also taught me that i love sci-fi more in movies and shows than in books… at least so far. maybe i just haven’t found the one that fully clicks for me yet

skipped week two, but somehow i already have three bingos

the last couple of weeks filled a lot of squares: almost kiss, don’t leave, memory wiped, you came back, that look again…

only a few left now

trying sci-fi this month has been interesting. i think i love it more on screen than on the page, but i’m still hoping one of these books proves me wrong

first week of the may bingo board

only had one day to read, but one book still filled three spots:

not human… still hot forced proximity that look again

i think this one is going to fill faster than i expect

Currently Reading 📚

Right now, I’m juggling two books:

American Football Total by Jonas Kürbis

and

Gib dir die Liebe, die du verdienst by Katharina Tempel.

Funny enough, I can’t remember exactly when I started either of them — but the important part is that I’m reading, reflecting, and enjoying every page.

Yours,
