I also got a dog. His name is Oskar (like in Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close) and he's an 8 week old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Bichon mix. Our older dog, Buddy, isn't overly thrilled by the new fur ball, but is adjusting. Anyway, I'm babbling about puppies. This isn't a puppy blog.
Without further adieu here is my May in Review post. As always, I took the template from the lovely Lily at Lily's Bookshelf.
This is Oskar. He has mastered the "I'm skeptical" look.

Overall Reflection:
I'm starting to think my original goal of reading 75 books this year might be unrealistic with the start I got off to. Regardless, it's been a slow reading year for me. Hopefully this summer will help me to pick up my pace. I'm kind of sad I'm done with Harry Potter for a while, but it will probably be best for my friendships and my own mental health if I can talk about things that are Hogwarts related. Other than that everything's been pretty normal.
How was your May? Read any fantastic books? Let me know!

I love Oskar already. And is it just me, but reading the deathly hallows a second time it seemed twice as long?
Even if this isn't a puppy blog, that is one cute pouch! :D
I am in love with Oskar! The character and your dog!! So cute. He needs to be feature more often. I am just saying! ;)
oh and 4 books during May, during a school year, is pretty great!
May was really weird. I love the pup though! I got a puppy in February and we almost named him Oskar, seriously, this close to going with that. We went with Oliver instead, but I do love the name.
