Month in Review: August 2017


Month in Review:
August 2017

I hope you all remembered your tickets to Hogwarts, because today's the day!

Can you believe it's already September? I truly don't know where this year has gone. September means I'm moving and I'm not ready for that! This is also the first September since I first started schooling that I do not have to go back to school. It's an incredibly weird feeling, and although I am somewht relieved, I also sort of miss it. Plus, I loved shopping for school supplies? There's nothing better than a fresh notebook.

But on to the books! I apparently read less books than last month, which is odd considering how many I felt like I read. Regardless, I still had a great reading month and am now ready for this month's releases! All of my blog activities from August can be found below.

Anticipated August 2017 Releases!




August is almost here, which means new releases!
Personally, the arrival of August means that I'm trying not to freak out about how close we are to September when I move, so instead I'm trying to focus all of my nervous energy on books - has to be healthy, right? There are some fantastic new releases in August, and I can't wait to dive into some of these!
