I am really happy with the amount of books I have read this month, it helps that I read 4 books when I was in the car travelling to and from Scotland. I have read some belters this month and 2 of them are by far my favourites of the year!
I finally took a couple of days off and saw the bestie in Scotland for 4 days
Well I have finally utilised NetGalley shelves and sorted my books, although out of the 559 still on there, I am missing one bloody book as when I made my Goodreads shelves mirror I was out by one! Bloody one!!!!!!! But now the shelves look pretty and I am have a new plan of how I will work my way through them!
So what did I read this month?
My Stats for August were :

So I may have read a lot of books and cleared some backlog…but I got quite a few from Netgalley *doh* – how every single one is a tour book and a couple are duplicate due to being audiobooks
August acquired = 8 books
Reviews posted on Net Galley = 8 reviews – two books were different formats – audio and ebook. I am happy with this, although 10 would have been a nicer figure!
Now that my NG shelves are organised, I am now able to clearly pick them off, and it has made me love reading and get excited about reading aagain! I have quite a few books lined up and I am excited!!
Well, I will be back next month with an update and more accountability!
How was your month?
Until next time xxx
