1. Zel by Donna Jo NapoliGot this book for the letter Z for the alphabet challenge and I didn’t finish in time.
2. Luster by Raven Leilani Book 1/3 from my November 2020 BOTM box and we won’t talk about how my January box was delivered and I have tons of books from 2019 still

My January box has not been delivered yet. :( I chose the BOTY winner and all but one nominee as BOTM throughout the year, how frustrating is that? And I had already read the one I never chose. But freeeee so I chose it anyway. lol.
4. In a Holidaze by Christina LaurenBook 1/3 from my December 2020 box. I’ll get to 2019 books, eventually
5. Anxious People by Fredrik BackmanThis was book 1/3 from my September 2020 box. I swear I have 2019 books within reach but I really was looking forward to reading this one!
6. The Death of Mrs. Westaway by Ruth Ware
9. How To Be an Anti Racist by Ibram X. Kendi
10. How Not to Die Alone by Richard Roper This book is 2/3 from my May 2019 BOTM box. I can’t believe I still have a bunch of 2019 books but I guess I’ll make a dent.
11. Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt VonnegutThis is another book I've had sitting on my kindle. So I think I've read 2/10 this year. Let's see if I can read 10.
12. The Death of Vivek Oji by Akwaeke Emezi Book 1/3 from August 2020 BOTM box
13. Modern Lovers by Emma StaubBook 3/3 May 2019
I am really making my way through this back log of BOTM books (totally kidding, I am screwed)

It really is! I think I had picked out 11 BOTM books to read in May and I got to 6 so I think I can finish them but then my June picks came in. Ugh. Vicious cycle indeed!

I picked 5 to read and read 3. One took alllll month and the other 2 I read in 2 days. lol. And I'm reading another one right now. I'm going to at least try to read one a month? As I order 3 more each month...lol. The math, it's not working!
