Month In Review: August 2018

Hello my loves

We are once again at the end of a month, and a season. Summer is heading out the door and we are in that weird time between late summer and early fall, where the days are blistering hot and the nights are a bit chilly. The change like this makes me want to read differently and because I tried to resist the urge to change my reading this month my reading suffered. Instead of hitting my reading mark and I lagged behind then decided to binge watch some Supernatural and that just ruined any chance of doing any serious reading so this month is a little less than normal.

Waiting On WednesdayThe Books coming out this month that I would love to get my hands on. What are you lusting for??
