My June reads. I'm kind of sad I only managed to read four books. I was in a sort of reading slump where I was still reading but I wasn't enjoying them as much so they took longer to read 😖 What are some things you do to get out of a slump? #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #mymonthlyreads #toalltheboysivelovedbefore #allthecrookedsaints #thesecrethistory #themarkofathena #bibliophile #amreading #imbibliophile #bookish #bookphotography #mypicture #kindle #myreads #books #readersofinstagram #reading #fangirl #yalit #yareads #fandoms #bookfandoms #ebooks #kindlereads #kindlereader #kindlefire
