September #BookSpinBingo wrap up. I managed to tie September with February for my slowest reading months of 2023. Not sure what happened there. September seemed like it went by way too fast. Good news though is now I can count all the stories separately from my #DoubleSpin book for #Scarathlon 😈 #BatBrigade

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Great progress!! August and September were really slow reading months for me!! 6mo

September was a lovely month for gardening, sending off our monarchs, soccer, and READING. 📖
Loved so many of these titles pictured here.

🎧SEPTEMBER RECAP🎧

It was a good month. I had four 5-star books. Which is amazing, and they were amazing. This is also my longest time listened in a month for the whole year. But...I didn't get any actual reading accomplished this month...oh well.

fav book of the month was Such Sharp Teeth by Rachel Harrison
fav cover of the month was The September House by Carissa Orlando

My September reading graph is all over the place and that jives with how September rolled. Looking forward to a more settled October.

Thanks to a good final week, I finished 14 books this month. While my average rating was higher than last month, I still feel like I read a lot of mediocre and forgettable books, which makes me a little sad. The Devil‘s Playground was my favorite and The Paradox Hotel was not far behind. #spetemberstats #septemberwrapup

LeslieO Still Life With Crows was one of my favs of the series. 6mo

I had 19 books on my August TBR. I read 4. I have 11 books (possibly 13, depending on the bookspin/doublespin numbers). What percentage of these will I actually read? 🤔 #septembertbr

Cutting it close, but finally finalized my goals for the #SummerEndReadathon. I decided to go back to the staged goals, finishing one before moving onto the next, but not necessarily pushing to finish all. My reading really slowed down in August, so I‘m just hoping for a stress free, relaxed reading month. No monthly numerical goal, just hoping for some five star reads. #QualityOverQuanity.

TheSpineView Great goal! Hope you find those 5 stars! 7mo

My September TBR was sort of easy to make as I didn‘t read about half the books on my August list due to family loss and back to school adjustments. I finally was able to sit and read a bit today and clean which was great and soothing. Getting ready for the turn of the month coming up this week and #bookspin

I'm probably going to be 2 books behind at the end of August so I started adding graphic novels to my list. Hopefully will catch up in September. :)

Today, I‘m sharing my reading stats from September. I read 7 books that were #libraryholds from Libby. I mainly read Fantasy and Romance. A lot of the books I read were mediocre but I‘m not going to like every book I read.

1. Bras & Broomsticks - ⭐️⭐️⭐️
2. Of Mice & Men - ⭐️
3. The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People - ⭐️⭐️⭐️
4. Mexican Gothic - ⭐️⭐️⭐️
5. The Road Trip - ⭐️⭐️⭐️
6. Once Upon A Toad - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
7. The No-Show - ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I am technically still reading Babel, but this past month has been so stressful it was put on the back burner. I don‘t see myself finishing it in October either, but stranger things have happened!

Wrapping up September before I start October #Scarathlon posts. As busy as work was for me, I‘m happy I was able to finish 6 books (one a chunkster) & partially finish 2 more—I‘m caught up & will finish Jane Eyre with the #PemberLittens #chapteraday & I am about 2/3 through with Other Birds (which I‘m loving but couldn‘t stay up to finish 😵)

Favorites were Free Food For Millionaires with #SundauBuddyRead & Backyard Witchcraft read for review.

Goodreads is, and probably always will be, my main place to track books (that and my spreadsheet), but I've dived into StoryGraph this month and it's mostly because of this graph. I love how it lays out my reading over the course of the month.

If StoryGraph ever changes how to mark books as read and reviewing them a forever switch might happen.

Another month, another #bookspin list! I've already started almost half of these books (yes, I read way too many books at the same time!), so hopefully I'll finish several. Of course, I'm sure I'll let myself be distracted along the way...

Not much reading time this month, what with my new bookstore opening in 3 days, but lots of comfort reading, which for me is lots of cozying up with cookbooks!
Also two five star novels with the Rooney and the Groff…. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Word Slut, Your Guide to not getting Murdered in a Quaint English Village, and Several People Typing were all equal parts clever and funny!
ThreeRooms was good not great….

I‘ve never read so many NEW books in one month! 11 of 18 were published in either August or September. Two more were from earlier this year. I got most from the amazing Nashville Public Library.

My reads for September 💕 I can‘t believe I got 12 books in, but these were all so good! I celebrated Banned Books week right by reading 4 (technically 5) banned or challenged books, and I got to continue in some series I absolutely loved.

Since most of my listening/reading for this month has been dictated by Halloween Bingo (a game I play from another site) I only managed one bingo for the month. But I did finish my #bookspin #doublebookspin. So here is my results for the month of September. 15 Books Total. I read one book and the rest I listened to on Audio.

Cannot believe it‘s been 20 years since that horrible day when we lost so many. But now in our second September of the pandemic, it also feels like this was centuries ago, given how divided our nation is.
