July reading wrap up 2025

I feel like I spend July in England since I binged so many of the Emma M. Lion journals 😂😂. While I did a lot of things in July, I still managed to read quite a bit as well. I read 17 books and DNF'd one. And, until I put this post together, I had not realized how many 5-star reads I had this month! I can say with absolute certainty that I have never had that many 5-star reviews in a month (and probably won't again). Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in reading my review.

Overall, this was a good reading month, although I fell behind on several of my challenges. Somehow I had 20,000+ page views on my blog this month. I normally have around 5,000, so not sure what's up with that, not quite as much as last month, but still super high. My stats were up on my personal blog as well.
