May/June Books and Blog Wrap Up and July Goals!

Welcome to my monthly recap, where I recap the previous month and share my reading goals for the next month! I used to just strictly share what books I’d wanted to read and what I’d read but I am trying a new thing where I share all the posts from the month as well, in case you missed anything and want to catch up! Let’s see how this goes.

I completely skipped doing a recap of May and even setting goals for June so that’s where I’m at! I need to get back on track with blogging and I have this pretty new laptop and I’m so ready to do so. Its about to be con season too so there are a lot of really exciting things coming up so keep your eye out for that!

Throwback Thursday Review: A Game of Thrones by George RR Martin

The Throwback Thursday review is where I take a book I recently reread and review it with new eyes. It could be a book I’m reading for the second, third, fourth or millionth time. Some books haven’t been read in years so its fun to throwback and see if my opinion has changed!

Please keep in mind that Throwback Thursday reviews are based on reread books. They most likely will contain spoilers as the books have already been released for some time. This is your only warning if you want to avoid spoilers for these books.

Music Monday {11}

Music Monday is a weekly post where you can share a song, a music video or anything musical related that you’re feeling awesome about that week. Here on What A Nerd Girl Says, I will almost always share a song that I’m super into that week and the music video, if any, that goes with it!

I honestly have been listening to the same playlist over and over again for the past few weeks so I decided to do a throwback music Monday to a song that has been a favorite of mine since I first heard it at maybe…14 or 15 years old and remains one of my favorites.
