August TBR & Monthly Challenge

I decided to join a reading challenge group on Facebook called Words & Whimsy. August's theme is Kitchen Showdown and I'm part of the Messy Microwaves group. So I have a list of books I'm going to try and read to earn points for my team. We'll see how that goes, as I am starting Term 2 in my Masters program today too. :/

June Book Haul

I hauled a lot this month. Again. I read all my library books in the month, so that's pretty great! There are a lot of Kindle books but 6 were from Netgalley and 2 were free on Amazon, so 8 of 12 were free. I preordered the third book in the My Lady Jane trilogy and it arrived this month!

Books I Read in June

I read 11 books in June.

July TBR & Monthly Challenge

I had my best reading month of the year in June (11 books!!) and I'm kind of stunned. I also finished two courses for my masters program and played a lot of Fortnite. Looking at my challenges, I need to tackle both series and Owlcrate books. I'm also still going to work on Netgalley books because I have a lot of Netgalley books to read. I've been reading so much from the library lately but I do need to read what I have of my own too.

My Tentative TBR for July:

• Sex & Vanity by Kevin Kwan [Netgalley]
• Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Nyan [Owlcrate]
• Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend [Owlcrate Jr]
