Hello fellow bookworms! I can’t believe it’s the end of August already! I’ve been saying that for most of my posts these last few days, but it’s true. I am incredibly sad to see August end, mostly because of one main reason; school will be starting soon, and although I’m kind of excited to be on my last year of school, no way am I looking forward to the heaps of schoolwork and studying that I will be facing. But, let’s not make this gloomy, because August was a great month and although I didn’t get through all the books I wanted to, I read some pretty cool books this month! Overall I think August was pretty successful. Let’s get to it!

So that’s it for this month’s wrap-up! I’m going to go try and get some reading in (Queen of Shadows, of course, even though it’s almost midnight) but I’d love to hear of how your month went! If you have a wrap-up post, feel free to link it below, or simply tell me how this month went for you. 😉
Happy first day of September!
Wow, you had a pretty successful reading month, as always! 🙂 These monthly wrap-ups sure shows your dedication to your blog, Analee! And congratulations again on reaching another well-deserved milestone! 😀

Thanks Jess! 🙂 13 books is pretty awesome! Haha don’t worry, I’m the same; out of the books I’ve read, I’ve only reviewed a few. I’m definitely going to be trying to amp up the number of reviews this month! And thank you, that’s so sweet! ❤ Love ya too, girl. 😉

I’m so incredibly jealous of all you can get done in a month! I didn’t do as well as I’d hoped this month. But I read Confess this month as well and really enjoyed it! I really need to pick up The Wrath and the Dawn… I’ve heard nothing but good things and your rating seems to attest to that.

Ha ha thanks Jacqueline! 🙂 I’ve kind of been determined to get a lot of reading done before I start my last year of school, lol. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed Confess! It’s a really good novel. I really hope you do, I loved it so much! I can’t wait to see what you think of it once you get around to reading it. ❤
