📚 ARC Spotlight: 32 Days in May by Betty Corrello

🗓️ Available May 13, 2025

"Do you cry when you eat ice cream because you know it won’t last forever."

I’ve recently started receiving Advanced Reader Copies (ARCs) of books and audiobooks, and 32 Days in May has quickly become one of my favorite discoveries.

This isn’t just a romance novel—it’s a heartfelt story of resilience, vulnerability, and dry humor that hits you right in the feels.

💔 Chronic Illness Meets Charming Romance

Nadia, the main character, abandons the big city for a small seaside town after being diagnosed with Lupus. As someone living with chronic illness and autoimmune disease myself, reading about a character like Nadia felt like a breath of fresh air.

She grapples with the all-too-familiar struggles of medical burnout, shame, denial, and the quiet fear of being a burden. Nadia is in what she considers a breakdown state at times, while other times she can see that her life isn't over, it's just different. Despite the state she's in, she continues to entertain with her quick witted comments and banter.

“This is where they buried Liz Claiborne’s final horcrux.”

💘 The Month of May

When Nadia is introduced to Marco through her rheumatologist, they decide to date—just for the month of May. What unfolds is a tender, funny, and emotionally rich love story full of character growth, vulnerability, and just the right amount of drama.

🎧 Why You Should Grab the Audiobook

Narrated by Joy Nash, the audiobook version is a standout. Her performance brings these characters to life in such a vivid, heartfelt way that I found myself completely immersed. If you enjoy listening to your books, put this one on your radar the moment it's released.

🌟 Final Thoughts

32 Days in May is everything I didn’t know I needed in a romance: authentic representation of chronic illness, razor-sharp wit, swoony moments, and characters that stay with you long after the final page.

I’m already counting down the days until Betty Corrello’s next release.
