August Reflections

In August I read 77 books. 15 of the 77 were review copies. 1 was a gift. 1 was a book read aloud on YouTube. The rest were from the library. I am trying to read as many 2021 books as I can because the Cybils are approaching. Nominations will open soon, and I want to be prepared to nominate in all the categories.

There were a good many 5 star books this month. But that was balanced out with a lot of two star reviews.
