May brought blooming covers, twisty plots, and a fresh dose of books to choose from! The (optional) themes offered a choice between flowers, nature, and growth or suspenseful page-turners.
🌸 Books in Bloom – Floral covers, nature themes, or stories of personal growth took center stage.
🕵️♀️ Spring Into Mystery – We cracked open the mysteries, thrillers, and whodunits that had been waiting patiently on our shelves.

Absolutely adored this one! Romance with a touch of magical realism.
This is an absolutely beautiful and memorable story of personal transformation, sisterhood, nature, and love. It follows Nettie who we see develop from an abused child and marginalized woman trapped in a marriage (not of her choosing) to an independent, entrepreneurial woman in the segregated south. I loved this book and highly recommend it.
Very interesting read! They went through A LOT to get Sesame Street in Russia.
I thought the way the author characterized the female lead and integrated her culture in the story was very well done and engaging!
A funny and adventurous cozy mystery, with great descriptions of the food too!
I think EVERYBODY should read this book! It explains the physiological purpose of sleep and what happens to our body, instantly as well as over time, when we are not getting enough sleep. It will scare you to straight (to sleep). Important information to have as we navigate life and try to make the best choices for our health and ourselves.
Be sure to check back next month to see what we’ve read in June—or better yet, join the No Chapter Left Behind Book Club and be part of the fun!
Pick a book, follow the themes (or not!), and enjoy the journey with fellow book lovers. Remember – every finished book is a win!
