Come catch up with me and take a look at what I read this past month as well as what’s coming up for next month’s goals and events. October is one of my favorite months. This one has been pretty atypical for me. I’ve been busy with family stuff and some travel, which hasn’t…

What Anna Read in August 2017
Come catch up with me and take a look at what I read this month as well as next month’s goals and events. After such an amazing month of reading in July, I am hardly surprised that August was rather lackluster. Keep your expectations extremely low as you scroll down, there’s not much to see…
What Anna Read in July 2017
Get ready to be impressed! July brought two read-a-thons that I participated in, totaling 9 consecutive days. Both the 24 in 48 read-a-thon (reading for 24 hours within 48 hours) and the BookTube-a-Thon (reading 7 books in 7 days) were incredibly fun. I got a teensy bit exhausted by the end, yes, but not enough that I’m…

Favorite Books of 2017 at Mid-Year
Half the year is over and I can hardly believe it! Part of me thinks the amount of time I’ve spent reading has really helped to speed things along, but pretty much everyone I’ve talked to can’t believe July is already upon us. I don’t know what their excuses are, so who can say what…
