Weekly Wrap Up: June 12-18

First, I want to wish everyone a Happy Father’s Day! Even though I don’t get to spend today with my dad or grandpa, I hope some of you are spending time with family. (Don’t worry about me, I get to see mine in just under three weeks. It’s crazy, I only have twenty days left of my service and when I came here it seemed like 27 months would take so long!) This week I also came up with a tag and a book bingo that I want to do, I just need to decide when I’m going to post them. I’m tempted to do bookstagram photos as I read the books that relate to the book bingo, and I can’t do that until I get home – so you guys may have to wait a little while for that one. But without further ado, here’s my week in books and posts!

Books I Reviewed This Week:
