 Hello, hello everyone. My name is Laura and this is my channel Laura's Little Library and welcome to today's video Which is kind of my June TBR I'm going to quick run to the bookstore and then the library and Depending on what I find at the library is going to determine what my June TBR is So it's gonna be a partial I kind of come book shopping slash come to the library with me And then I'll go through everything that I want to read this month in June. So I'm super excited I already have one buddy read planned for the book that I plan on getting from Barnes & Noble today And I am almost done with an audiobook that I started yesterday that I'm very much enjoying and that is the Kindred by Alicia Dow Also, just so you know the theme for the TBR is Quickly queer because it is Pride Month and if I find anything with bi rep I'm gonna go probably straight to that just For myself for my own representation, I think it would be a lot of fun But just anything kind of queer I'm gonna go for it And that's why I started off with the Kindred because it's a sci-fi debut That are one of the main characters is bi and then a couple other of the side characters are gay as well as Non-binary so it's a great kickoff to you this month so far and yes I am back in my parents house So yeah, all right, let's get going The second book in duology and I read for the wolf earlier this year and I loved it It's one of my favorite books of the year so far And this one came out today the day that I'm filming it, which is June 7 and I have been waiting for this to come out I am so excited Can hear my dad cooking in the background But yeah, so I'm really excited to finish up this duology And I believe this is actually going to be a buddy read with a friend of mine from high school Who has recently been getting into the book talk world? So really excited to read this with her and just read it in general So this is the book I got in June I also want to mention before I get into the rest of this TV art that my amazing amazing husband Got me This cute little dragon cute little dragon pin this cute little bisexual dragon pin, and it's it's just so cute So I think I'm gonna put this on my purse I like it cuz it's not like overly in your face bisexual, but like I can still have something representing me on there I was gonna just put it on here and just have it for the rest of the video But I won't do that because it's a fairly hefty pin So yeah, I just want to find that out because it's Friday month and I'm excited So I think I'm gonna do the three books that I own that I want to read Before I get into the library books. So I have my dearest darkest by Caleb Cunningham This is a queer dark academia and I again got it when it came out in like April And I've been wanting to read ever since so I would love to read it this month Maybe on like a rainy day because it kind of gives me like rainy day dreary vibes If you know what I mean, then check out my rainy day recommendations video Then I have the night and it's noon, which is a book by Piper CJ and she's actually a book talk She's not a book talker. She's on tiktok But she does she talks about folklore because she has a master's in folklore And I love watching her videos and the main character of this is bisexual and it's fantasy And so yeah, my friend got me this for my birthday. This is the self-published version However, she is being picked up by a publisher and so they will republish this with the editing and honestly As long I'm gonna read this and if I like it, then I'm probably going to also purchase the republished version and just have them both Like I like this and Then the final book that I own that I'm going to read is Six of Pros by Lee Bardugo I have finished the original trilogy of the Grisha verse So it's time for me to pick this up And I believe there is a queer character in here as well. So I'm excited I like that not all of my queer books are just gonna be YA romance Even though a lot of them are just because it is summer, but yes Okay, now we get to go into the long Long bunch of library books that I got. I will say I'm not expecting to read all of these But I'm excited to get to maybe half of them because half of them were books that I got at the first two libraries I was like, I'm not super excited to read it, but I want to have something To read that I'm somewhat interested in and then the third and final library that I went to I found a bunch of books That I was really excited for so I also have dial A for aunties the last book in the school for good and evil series and I think one more book on audio other than my current read the kindred So just putting that out there those are books I'm gonna read just because I have them not necessarily to fit to be pride theme But one book that I do have over audio that I did pick up the physical copy just to kind of read along together Was the grim rose girls and this is by Laura Cole and this is another queer dark academia Kind of fairy tales ish vibes So again, this is one that when I heard what's coming out. I was really excited for so I I don't know why I'm just so into dark academia again like a secondary phase of dark academia Through the year this next one isn't queer. I don't think But it was cute and it's a graphic novel so I'm just I'll read it real quick And that's the prince and the dressmaker by Jen Wang I don't know the boy likes to wear dresses. What's so wrong with that? so Got that one and then I got cool for the summer and this is by Dahlia Adler and this book in the plot is Not one that I'm super excited for per se It you know It's one girl goes to North Carolina has a fling with a girl and then goes back to school and has a crush on a boy And then the girl that she had a fling with over the summer goes to her school Kind of gives me a little bit of grease vibes, but like not quite So it's a little bit of a love triangle But the reason I did pick this up is because this is the first book that I heard on Booktube like that was talked about that had a bisexual main character So I thought and follow it to fruition plus it's not too long. So Well, I'll give it a shot Plus it's a summery read so and then this next one. I was super excited for I was really hoping I would find it And that is the henna wars and this is by adiba jagirdar and I have read some of adiba jagirdar's other works And I very much enjoyed them, but this one just sounds so adorable It is about two girls who have rival henna businesses and I'm just so excited so This one will be one I'll pick up pretty early on and then another one I hope to pick up fairly early is a spindle splintered by Alex Iharo. This book is so short like this is Tiny like I'm gonna read this in a night, but it was Someone had told me that it was queer and then I saw it at the library in the their little queer shelf I don't know like how it's queer, but I don't really care because it's short and queer and fantasy So and it's like a sleeping beauty retelling if I'm misreimagining of sleeping beauty, so I'm all for it next Stack I have a master of gin and this is by P. Deji Clark I did not say that right, so just go ahead and look at it this one I had on my radar be because of gin I it's like a steampunk Egypt I think a steampunk Cairo and I'm really excited for that aspect But then again this too was like on a queer shelf and like there was a brief mentioning somewhere that was queer But I wasn't expecting it so I'm excited to read it and then it's also queer so I can read it this month And then I also have I'll be the one and this is by Laila Lee and this has I believe her main character is ace I feel like it. I'm pretty sure that's what I heard so Yes, but she it's about a girl who is plus eyes who's told that she can't be a kpop star and then she becomes one So I think it'll just be a cute little light story. I've heard good things about it So plus it's got such a summary cover and she looks so happy And then I have never night by Jay Kristoff and this was one I got at the very first library It was the only one I got and it and this is kind of on the lower end of my priority Because I like the plot, but I heard some things that Jay Kristoff may be problematic So We'll see Yeah, it might just be that I read it like from the library and support my library rather than like support the author But yeah another fantasy with queer somewhere in here I've been told So then the final book is not actually one that I picked up from the library But one that my husband picked up from the library a while ago And he is currently reading it and I think I'm gonna pick it up after him either This very one and then return it to library when I'm done Or I'll like recheck it out or extend it or whatever but that is getting in the ninth by by Tamsin Muir and This was literally described to me as lesbian necromancers in space so I'm here for it and it's so funny because the library copy has black sprayed edges, which I think is so interesting but Yeah, so those are all the books there are a lot of books and like I said There's no way I'm getting to all of these. Maybe I will read some of them in July as well But really it's gonna be all about prioritizing Thank you all so much for watching this ginormous June TVR If you have any more suggestions for me, I mean I'm gonna try and see how many of these I can get over Audiobook to try and read them faster so if you have any recommendations or what are you reading this month?
