SUMMER READING | JUNE BOOK HAUL

That new book feeling is unbeatable! While I should be better about reading unread books I already own, I always feel more inspired and excited to dive into something new. I remember feeling the same as a kid. Anytime we would go to the library or bookstore, I would always want to bring home eleven different books to dive into! I was definitely better about getting through them all back then but with summer here, I wanted to stock up on a few new reads. I have a mix of fun, romancey books and some self-help/personal growth titles I’ve had my eye one. 

SUMMER BOOK HAUL


Atomic Habits by James Clear

After months of being on my wishlist, I finally picked up Atomic Habits by James Clear. I'm always interested in self-improvement and growth, both interconnected to our daily habits. Once set, it can be difficult for us to change bad habits and develop positive ones. On the upside, I think the reverse applies as well. I know that once I get into a routine and in the habit of doing something for long enough, I can usually stick with it. The trouble is the doing it for long enough part! Hoping this will be an insightful read with new tips + advice. 

The Enneagram Type 4 by Beth McCord

Within the past year, I've become fascinated by enneagrams. I took several quizzes and discovered I'm a Type 4! Everyone in my personal life was surprised to hear I was Type 4 (The Individualist) which I found funny because one of my Type 4 traits is feeling misunderstood by others. The irony, right?? I was excited to find this book all about Type 4 (you can find all other types here) to learn more about myself. 

Freed (Fifty Shades of Grey) by EL James

Obviously I was going to get this. I had no idea up until a few weeks ago that Freed was being released. I think they must have kept it on the DL? Maybe I've just been out of the loop. If you're a Fifty fan, Freed is Fifty Shades Freed told from Christian Grey's perspective. I've always thought the original series is best, however I still enjoy these! At this point, it's almost nostalgic and the perfect vibe for summer. 

Get Good with Money by Tiffany the Budgetnista Aliche

I discovered this a few months ago on the new releases list under Business/Finance. I love learning new ideas and perspectives when it comes to money so Get Good with Money grabbed my eye. I haven't followed any of Tiffany Aliche's content before so I think this will be a great starting place. 

Greenlights by Matthew by McConaughey

Another one that's been on my wishlist is Greenlights. I love McConaughey-- what a diamond in the rough of Hollywood celebrities he is. Seemingly so, anyways. Of course he's talented in his work, however I respect his personality, character and integrity. I've watched and listened to a lot of interviews and podcasts episodes he's been apart of and he just has a special charisma. His book Greenlights is his spin on a memoir sharing his life, stories, and lessons. 

People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

This has summer reading written all over it! This follows a pair of two unlikely friends who had a falling out and decide to reconnect for a summer vacation. Based on the synopsis, it seems like it will become a "friends to lover" scenarios so we'll see. The book has received a lot of praise, however I've also heard some mixed reviews. I'm always in the mood for a light, breezy romance so I'm excited to dive in. I know that Emily Henry's first book Beach Read is also highly praised, however I haven't read it either.
