May 2024 TBR ft.  

It's almost May, and that means it's time for #asianreadathon ! I have participated in this great readathon in honour of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month since 2021. In this video I share my TBR for this year’s readathon with reference to the prompts, as well as some additional books because clearly I picked several more books than there are prompts. My TBR this month totals 2638 pages. Let me know in the comments what your favourite books by Asian authors are and/or what you’re reading for May! Have you read any of these books?
Check out Cindy’s announcement of this year’s themes here: • Asian Readathon Announ... Thank you to Cindy for putting together another fantastic set of prompts and supporting resources.
