I’m continuing on my mood reader journey rather than have a strict TBR each month, and have a few ARCs and ALCs of titles that I will be prioritizing.

I need to get through a few ARCs/ALCs and I also need to catch up on several other books. My TBR has once again sprouted a fifth head. These are on my radar:

• Take Me With You by Steven Rowley (ARC)
• Hungered by Amanda Rizkalla (ALC)
• Five by Ilona Bannister
• Homebound by Portia Elan
• Our Perfect Storm by Carley Fortune
