Happy Monday Friends! July ended up being a very busy month for me and I did not get a ton of reading in. I finished 11 books in July and 7 of those where audio books. I also DNF’d 2 books which took up some of my time but thats ok. Overall I am still happy with my numbers and will probably be finishing 2 books in the next day or two which puts me in a good spot for August.
My favorite read this month was probably The Guilt Trip, I really enjoyed this one. My least favorite finished book was The Dating Dare, I was pretty underwhelmed with this one. I also DNF’d Dream Girl by Laura Lippman and Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid.
