August Stats

Looking Back at August: Pretty good month, both reading and personally. I read 27 books, much more than I was anticipating and I'm in a good position to read more over Labor Day weekend. However I was disappointed in a lot of the books and was a pretty harsh critic-I guess I am getting crabby as my blogging years increase. Personally I started a new job that has immensely lifted my spirits-it's an increase in pay and benefits as well as the chance to grow a lot more professionally.

Looking Forward to September: Again a lot of YA, including a blog tour for Sulan, Episode One: The League by Camille Picott and the highly anticipated conclusion to the Firelight trilogy Hidden. I do have a few adult novels sprinkled in though as you'll see. I also have a four week series about reasons to love realistic YA lit (culminating in a giveaway) so you'll definitely want to be around on Sundays! Lastly I am moving forward on work for my 3-year blogoversary in November including a full week of giveaways-I can't wait to celebrate this milestone with all of you :)
