Whoosh! And July is over. I was on vacation in the first week of July, have been back for three weeks now, but it feels like it was just a second ago. This month most of my reading was done while on vacation and since I had time I read plenty of books, this probably will be my record month this year. It has been a good month, I discovered and enjoyed the Jackson Brody series by Kate Atkinson, finally faced the book I’ve dreading for years (guess which of the below it was), read a good mix of fiction and non-fiction and I finished reading my #20booksofsummer. I am horribly behind on reviewing, but I decided to take my time, otherwise I’d have to stop reading for a week to catch up on them and I”m not ready to do that.
I’m sure August will be more challenging time-wise, but then I have another vacation to look forward to in September. Yay!

Thank you! I don’t think August will be so good in terms of volume, but I’ll try to make up in quality 😉 How was your July?

7 books completed, all good or very good! My favorites were a reread of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone on audio book, This Is The Story Of a Happy Marriage by Ann Patchett, and Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery.

Great reading! I read 9 books in July, I think, which I was really pleased with. One review still to come on the blog as it was for an online magazine. Hope your August reading is going well, too!
