Month In Review | May
Hello bookworms! The month of May has come and gone and I’ve decided to start doing a new thing called Month In Review. At the end of each month, aside from my book-ish wrap ups, I shall be wrapping up all other aspects of my life and my blog through this monthly post! So without further ado, let’s review my month in May!
Life
The month of May was the month of exams. I’m a Year 12 student, so it’s my last year in high school, so exams are a source of great pressure and stress! This month I’ve been sweating over studying for exams and now they are finally done, I feel a great sense of relief and freedom! However, I still have two more sets of exams to go later this year…
Blog
Very surprisingly, I managed to put up so many posts this month! I don’t know if you guys noticed, but I’ve been very active with my posting and with interacting and commenting. It’s honestly very shocking, I think stress boosts my performance a little (however, it’s not good for my mental health, let me tell you).

Book Of The Month
Music Of The Month
I’m a big fan of music and I listen to it all the time. I’m also an experienced singer and love to sing, so I’m constantly singing to songs as I do things around the house. This month, I’ve been obsessed with James Bay and his album: The Chaos and the Calm. He has the most gorgeous voice and he’s also good looking on the eyes, if I say so myself!
My favourite songs would have to be:
Hold Back The River
If You Ever Want To Be In Love
Scars
Show of the Month
The first half of May, I spent a lot of time watching TV shows on my laptop. One of my favourites for the month of May have to be Community. This show is so entertaining, funny and just a great show to relax to!
This is such a good idea. 😀 I feel like sometimes bloggers get lost behind book reviews and other bookish things, so it’s important (and fun!) to know what else the person is interested in. 😀 I’ll have to check out James Bay’s music. And I can’t believe I haven’t read the Angelfall series yet. Shame, shame. 😦

Yes! I think it is great to know what else I do in my life besides books. I’d love to see you do it!
You should definitely check him out! And read Angelfall! 😆

I ordered Angelfall as soon as I commented on your post. I keep telling myself that I should stop buying books, but I don’t have an iron will at all. I actually have a will made of mashed potatoes. >.>

Oh my God, I absolutely love James Bay! I got his album last week and I’ve listened to it so much!!! What’s your favourite song of his? I have like 4 tbh, he’s just too good haha. But I think I would have to choose If You Ever Want To Be In Love.

Yes! Oh my gosh I’m so glad someone else is a fan! He’s amazing. My favorite songs… So hard to choose because they are all amazing! But I’d have to pick – If you Ever Want To Be In Love and Scars! 😁😁

I watched it online on a website called Stan which is kind of like an Australian version of Netflix! Maybe you could purchase the dvds for the seasons. 🙂 xoxo
