Book Recs: My 10 Favorite Books in 10 Years of Blogging

Happy 10th blogiversay to me! It was actually last month and I forgot, but ten years is a long time and feels like an important number to celebrate.

Blogging has been difficult for me lately, I haven't done much more than reviews and monthly updates, so here I am to humbly present to you all a cover love post! It's summer now, so let's all enjoy some summery book covers.
