I can’t believe it’s August!! I feel like April last a year and the summer went so fast. I know the world is crazy right now but I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. ❤
I read 21 books that totaled 7,126 pages. I’m really surprised by that number!!
I have filled in the letter K on my AtoZ challenge. I only have O & Z left. I have the books to fill these letters but I just need to get to them!
I’ve also read 10 books for my #startonyourshelfathon and I now have a total of 86 of my own books! The only thing is that I keep buying more and my physical TBR is still huge. haha.
I was planning on joining a readathon this month because I was going to read a bunch of sequels. Well.. that didn’t really happen. haha. I’m such a mood reader and TBR’s are hard!

Books Read:

This was expiring in my overdrive holds. It was such a quick read that I read it in one sitting. It’s such a great graphic novel!
Library e-book

SO GOOD! I loved this so much. I watched her Netflix special about her book tour too. I can’t wait for her podcast!
Library Audiobook

I did the audiobook of this one. I had mixed feelings.

I had a rough start but once I ended up loving this. It is quite violent and gross at time.

I listened to this as an audiobook and I did not care for this one. She was pretty much obsessed about her looks but trying to say she wasn’t obsessed about it. Review to come.

I did not enjoy this one as much as everyone else, unfortunately!

I enjoyed this book so much!! I can’t believe it’s been sitting on my shelf so long. I can’t wait to read the next one!

This was definitely a strange one! Not my normal genre but it was interesting.

This was so good. I’m so mad at myself for taking so long to read this one. Highly Recommend!

Wow, a great month! I also loved Becoming…and the Netflix special.
Carrie Fisher’s documentary of Wishful Drinking was awesome…better than the book, because she is so funny. (Was, sigh).
Enjoy August!

Did you know that Michelle Obama is doing a podcast now??
I definitely need to check out the documentary! I loved her and can see how it’s better than the book!
I hope you have an awesome August!

I still have letters to fill in my A to Z challenge, and I might not be able to fill them this year 😬 – it looks like I might not be able to finish the challenge. Next year I will start at the beginning of the year, more time and more books to fill those letters.
Also, congrats to a fabulous reading month!! I read 21 books as well 😀

Oh no!!! How many letters do you have left?? There’s still a lot of time left in the year!! You read a lot, so I think you could do it! 🙂 Starting at the beginning of the year does help though.
Thank you!! Wohoo, we both had awesome months!! 🙂

Great reading month! Definitely agree about listening to memoir on audio if the author reads it.
