I did not finish much in August, which makes me a little sad. What makes me a lot sad is that I only enjoyed the top three. 😩😩 #augustwrapup #auguststats

The End of a Month | Algernon Charles Swinburne

August seemed to last forever, so I was surprised to see I only read 11 books this month! I think The Wake-Up Call was my favorite, but it was a close call!

I won‘t finish Black Water Lilies tonight, so my slowest reading month of the year ends with 10 finished books and several bails. On the bright side, three were 5 star reads, making it nearly impossible to pick a favorite. I‘ll take quality over quantity, if I can‘t have both. I cleared 6 books from my NetGalley backlog and checked off 4 books from the McIlvanney Prize longlist. #auguststats #augustwrapup

September, September | Shelby Foote

First of all, I didn‘t know Shelby Foote wrote a novel…

Anyway, as I said yesterday, my #AugustStats weren‘t quite where I wanted them to be, but all things considered I was still happy I read six books.

Now on to September! This is more or less my #TBR for the month. I‘m expecting to have a little more reading time in the coming weeks. (Famous last words?)
