August reading wrap up 2025

I don't know how we are already at the end of August! I didn't have as many 5-star reads this month, but I still read a lot of good books. I read 15 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in reading my review.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Johnny Tremain

Title: Johnny Tremain

Author: Esther Forbes

Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

Genre: Young Adult, Middle Grade, American Revolution, Historical Fiction, Classics

My Review:

I was not looking forward to reading Johnny Tremain, this month's book club pick. However, I didn't dislike it as much as I had anticipated. I don't read many war stories or middle-grade fiction.

Stacking the Shelves #180 Sunday Post #177 Sunday Salon #171

Hey my bookish friends! How was your week? I did a lot of relaxing last weekend, and walking (almost 6 miles), so I did not get any packing done, oops. But, I did get some done on Tuesday. On Wednesday the contract on our house fell through, so it is back on the market again. We had two showings last night (Friday), and we will see what the weekend brings. While our house was being shown my husband and I went to Barnes and Noble 😁. On my agenda this weekend is some packing, my daughter is coming home to spend the night this afternoon, and will leave first thing tomorrow, more relaxing, hopefully some walking...
