Summer is going fast as always! Have you been fitting in some summer reading? I sure hope so.

June wasn’t the best reading month for me. I had no five-star reads. Plus, there were even a couple of books I didn’t end up finishing because of how boring I found them. I rarely stop reading a book but in these cases I’m glad I did. Thankfully, there were still a number of books I enjoyed this month and you’ll find four new reviews below.

Camping has always been a big part of my life. As a child, my family camped a lot. I even have specific foods from my childhood that I still associate with camping (baked beans, powdered donuts, etc). In high school and college, I enjoyed camping adventures with friends. Now I get to pass my love of camping on to my children. To help prepare my kids for any new event I like to read books. Below is a list of children’s books about camping.

I did a lot of reading in May including many popular new releases. I had multiple five-star reads this month and that never happens! From my reviews below I hope you find a book to start your summer reading off right.
