Alright, everyone. Did you fill out your Bookish Bingo Cards? Share your cards and link up your posts below!
Recap of the rules:
Each month we will upload a new bingo card. You download the bingo card and mark off squares as you read books each month. At the end of the month, we will post our own bingo cards. Link up your post or post your own bingo card in the comments.
The monthly winner will be the person with the most marked squares. None of that across, diagonal, up and down, corners stuff. Just the number of squares. Be sure to include the books you’ve read for each of the squares. Only books read during the current month count. You may use the same book to fill multiple squares. We’ll announce the winner the following month to allow everyone time to link up their posts.
Don’t forget about your bonus points! This month is: Tea \ Coffee is on the cover!

Some of these Bingo squares were hard this month! Always struggle with Shelf Love (too many ARCs, not enough time for my previously purchased books), and physical books since I do eARCs or audiobooks mostly. The “banned book” square was a good choice for this month. Yet, while many of the things I read probably would have been banned, I don’t think any that I read specifically were. But finding a specific banned book to pick when my to-read list is astronomical was not in the stars.
So that gives me 21 covered, plus free space, plus BONUS: a total of 23!
Lynn:
Ugh. One month I’m going to read a physical book. Or a shelf love book. But that’s not this month!
