In July I reviewed 48 books. Nineteen were review copies. Twenty-four were library books. Five were books I bought myself. This month I read some books that I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE...and a few that I really did not enjoy at all.
I decided that July would be random. I read ten out of eleven books. I just couldn't finish that eleventh book in time. I am about a third of the way through? Maybe a little more. It's a mystery that should be a quick read, but isn't actually as quick as I wanted it to be.
August will probably be intentional. I may be sharing a list of books I intend to read in August! It was great fun to have a list to work from.
