Month in Review: May 2017

Goodbye May…Hello June!!! As this post goes live, I will be in NYC at BookExpo. This is the 3rd time I’ve attended, though I skipped a year – I did  not attend last year when it was in Chicago. I have a list of books I’m hoping to pick up, authors I’m hoping to see and publishers/publicists I’m hoping to meet with, plus I’m hoping to get some sight-seeing in while in the city for the week. I’ll be putting a post together once I get back as well as tweeting and posting some bookish pics to my Instagram account (if you want to follow me there, I can be found at @k2reader).
