May 2025 TBR

Hello my lovelies,

It’s Spring time here and that means for me getting every chance I get to read in the sunshine. After bouncing back a little in April, the weather and momentum is giving me the good vibes to go harder!

My additional goal that I am going to add onto myself is to possibly get 6 books read in the month of May. This is so I can get closer to being back on track with my yearly goal, even then I will still need to read in June as well.

Wish me luck!


Here is a reminder on how I am picking my monthly TBR books:

Historically, I have been using prompt cards to help me pick. Yet, this year, I am doing something different.

The first thing, will be to rollover one book that I haven’t read from the previous month. One thing I noticed last year, was that whatever I didn’t read in that month would get lost on the wayside. So this time, I want to rollover a book to help me hold myself account.

Second thing, I will read a book from my Fairyloot Romantacy subscription. I want to be active in staying on top of this, as I believe I will not always want to keep the books after I read them.

Lastly, I will make an conscious effort to pick one book that I really want to read from my shelf, and one from my exploding pile (where I give myself this year to read it or they will be sold or given to charity).


So let’s get into the books I have picked this month:

Rollover Book: The Marriage Game by Sara Desai

Subscription Book: Iron and Embers by Helen Schuerer

Exploding Book: The House in the Cerulean Sea

Interest Read: The Last Library by Freya Sampson


Out of these books, Iron and Embers is the only book over 500 pages. So I am hoping that having less pages means I can get through them a little bit quicker – or the stories just hook me!

So what do you think? Have you read any of these books from this TBR? I would love to hear your thoughts below!

Till next time.
