Welcome to September, my bookish friends!!! Where has the summer gone?! While I am not quite ready to say good-bye to summer, I am ready for some cooler temps.
With my eye procedure this month, my reading was a little lower. I ended up reading 15 books in August. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review.

I
am tired of focusing on my own books and ARC's so I plan to mix in some
library books with my own books. I am planning to cut out most ARC's
for the remainder of the year (we'll see if my self-control will last
that long 😂).
I'd say fifteen books in one month is a pretty good month! Lol.
ReplyDeleteDeb, I agree, but it is low for me ;)
DeleteIt's good to revisit the library...there's good bookish serendipity there, finding new and unexpected reads. And then there's no pressure to review any of them either, like you have with ARCs. And nice that you had so many 4- and 5-star reads in August! :D
ReplyDeleteLark, I agree, I love the library! I also had 3 2-star reads in August, it was a weird reading month!
DeleteFifteen books is amazing. You had a great month in August. I'm ready for the cooler temperatures too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy!
DeleteIn my younger years (my blog is turning 12 at the end of September), I used to request a lot of ARCs. I rarely do these days, as I have such a huge TBR, a few on my shelves, and most on my various lists!
