Previous month's book sources

Salmon is still missing. Kay is home for summer vacation. Last month I had surgery which affected my reading and blogging.

ROOB Score for the last three years

In May I read 16 TBR books, up from the previous month's eight TBR. Three were published in May. Nine titles were for research. None were reviews. None were from the library. My ROOB score for May was -3.18, down significantly from the previous month's -2. It was an average May but I enjoyed those new books tremendously.

ROOB score mapped year after year to compare trends

I predicted a -3.0 and did better by -0.18. For June, I'm predicting a -3.2.

ROOB monthly averages

My average for May improved slightly from -2.93 to -2.95.
