If there's one thing better than picking books for yourself, it's getting suggestions that end up being your favorite book in the future. Unfortunately, some of us have to go on a book buying ban. After looking at the May Book of the Month (BOTM) choices, (and being very sad I couldn't buy any of them yet) I decided to put together my own list or choices for this month from books I already own!

1. The Infinite Future by Tim Wirkus

This book has been on my list for a long time, but now that I have a copy to read from I'm ready to cross it off. The story starts when a Hello Kitty lunchbox washes up on the beach, containing a diary of a Japanese girl named Nao Yasutani. Ruth, the writer that finds this diary, quickly becomes lost in the tangles of Nao's life.

3. The Woman who gave Birth to Rabbits by Emma Donoghue

I've read a few of the short stories in this collection, but now that I have the free time this summer, I'm hoping to finish them all. In this collection, Donoghue gives voices to women during a time period where their lives were all but erased. She also has short stories based off strange records that she's brought to light and breathed life into.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
