June-July Reads 📚

Two audio, one read 🤓📚

3 days agoEdited to

... Read moreThis summer reading list caught my attention, especially because it combines two audiobooks with one traditional read, which is a perfect mix for anyone who loves both formats. I recently listened to an audiobook by Heather Aimee O'Neil, whose storytelling really brought the Irish setting to life. The narration made every character feel vivid, which added so much to my listening experience while commuting. Another highlight was an engaging read by Emily Henry, known for her witty and heartfelt novels. Her book, often topping the New York Times bestseller list, offers a refreshing take on contemporary romance and complex relationships. It’s a perfect companion for relaxed summer afternoons. What I found particularly appealing about these picks is the variety they offer—whether you prefer to immerse yourself in a story through audio during activities or enjoy the quiet focus of reading, these choices balance both wonderfully. Also, the recommendation from big names like Amy Daws promises great storytelling. Adding audiobooks to your reading list can transform your usual routine. For instance, during long drives or workouts, I find that audiobooks keep me company without the need to hold a physical book. Plus, hearing different narrators brings additional personality to the story. Overall, mixing formats and exploring authors who are recognized for their quality writing enhances the pleasure of summer reading. Whether you’re new to audiobooks or a seasoned reader, the June-July picks are well worth exploring.

June was a ROCKSTAR month for me!!! Now don’t come for me, when reading ToG I started with assassin’s blade and truthfully it was a 10/10 experience! I also did the tandem read for Empire of Storm and Tower of Dawn. I was initially worried it would be too much for me but the way it all lined up

I feel like I didn’t read that much this past month and while that’s partly true (I played a LOT of Nintendo switch) I also have to remember that two of the books I read were 450+ pages 😭 My favorite read by far was The Story of the Lost Child just because it marks the end of a year-long reading en
