This was the month of terrible books. Yeah, I liked most of what I read this month but I didn't like Sweet Valley Confidential, The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake and The School of Beauty and Charm. I don't think I've ever read so many books I didn't like in one month! Still barreling toward 100! I should complete it next month.
The Stats:
Fill In The Gaps Challenge: YTD: 9 (The Hours)
War Through The Generations:YTD: 6 (Nothing this month)-COMPLETE
YA Reading Challenge: YTD: 25 (Plus)-COMPLETE
The Original TBR Challenge: YTD: 6 (Jane Eyre)
Support Your Local Library Challenge: YTD: 74-COMPLETE
100+ Reading Challenge: YTD: 93
That sounds like my month of August!! I know that you will hit that 100 mark soon and I hope it's with a great book!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you had some major disappointments in there. Did you like Jane Eyre? I never read the novel, but did read the graphic novel with original text and enjoyed it. Hey--don't laugh! LOL! Okay, I just laughed at myself, so you can too. I also saw the recent film version with my teen. And she's reading it later this school year for her AP English Lit class in high school.
