Oh what a fast month it was!  I had high hopes to read lots of books this month but only managed to read 10!

This is way down from July and August where I was able to read about 16 books each month, but with school starting, I am so busy that I cannot devote the time I need to reading.  On the plus side, I was able to get many new followers on Twitter!  Taking part in Twitter chats has been really fun.  I have so many new book recommendations and new people to talk to, that it has been well worth the time spent.

Here are the books I read this month.



 

 

 

I think my favorite read this month has been Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs.  It is the third and final book in the series and it struck just the right cord between finishing out the story and leaving the characters enough space to imagine that they will have plenty more adventures to come.

I also loved:
Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, 
Goodbye Stranger by Rebecca Stead
The Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas
Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

I was not in love with The Wicked + The Divine.  Although the story was compelling, I don't seem to like the graphic novel format.

Overall, it was a good month.  I just wish I had more time to read and do even more with my blog.  How was your bookish September?  What was your favorite read this month?  Leave a comment below and let your voice be heard!

Fall is finally upon us!  For me, this means cooler weather, pumpkin lattes, and reading!  But it also means getting back to work, driving kids to school and activities, supervising homework, and getting up early!  Will I have time to keep up the pace of reading that I set this summer?  Um, I don't see how...  But I am going to try to read at least three books per week.  Two of the highlights for this month should be finally reading Library of Souls, by Ransom Riggs, and binge reading the Throne of Glass series (The ONLY benefit of starting a series after everyone else!).  Will She Do It?  Stay tuned!

Books I WILL read in September include:

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
