Building the Book Pile #493

Welcome to Building the Book Pile!

Happy Sunday!

Hi there, I hope you had a good week. I am n0t sure how we got to the end of June so quickly! 

I am realizing that I have listened to NO audiobooks for the 2025 JIAM Audiobook Challenge ... today and tomorrow are it... let's see what I can get done. I need to garden today...read as: weed the veggie garden excessively. I loathe grass. 

I am also a bit behind in my 20 Books of Summer challenge - My goal is 10 from my TBR. Originally I wanted this to be backlog TBR but I am going to be more realistic and say ANY TBR including my review list... because I am reading slowly right now and luckily this challenge gives us that flexibility. 


It was a long week. Although I had Monday off to recoup from my conference, the rest of the week dragged on SO slowly. I have less to do right now, so I am cleaning up and prepping for next year, but it is just monotonous and boring. That said, I am going to take a few more days off soon and that will be nice, plus the 4th of July holiday.

Summer so far has been meh in New England... lots of rain, some REALLY hot days but it hasn't felt like summer yet. How is it where you are?

Linking up this week with the Caffeinated Reviewer and her Sunday Post series.
