Oh man, the point horror books! Some of my favourites. I’d be at the library 9am every Saturday morning to check for unread ones and I’d do a weeks worth of chores to get a new one from smiths! nostalgia feels are real lol.

My July wrap up.. I’m so bitter about MoT I might deduct a star 🫣
Attachments
i went with two stars for mot too but that was really just for the supporting cast
the more i think about it the more mad i get (especially when i think of the hype it’s getting).i’ve been thinking about getting the silence in between and i love you x3 for a while though, i think you have now convinced me!
My July books! I’m about a third through The Women and loving it but won’t get finished today!

I'm surprised at the amount of books I read in July, some of them I thought I finished in June but nope! July has felt long!
Everything you need to know about the pill, Kate Muir -
The night she disappeared, Lisa Jewell

Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism, Amanda Montell - If anyone has other recs for books about cults, fiction or non, I'd be grateful!

- a meh end to the month!A great month for me book wise. Everyone here is lying is the only one that was a slight let down, I love Shari Lapena but this wasn’t her best, enjoyable but not particularly memorable.
I LOVED the rest, really enjoyed Murder in the Family and the unique concept but the standouts have to be the two Elin Hilderbrand’s, my first ever books of hers and OMG I am now obsessed with Nantucket and plan to read the other million books she has written
Can't believe we're at the end of another month! Against the Loveless World was my top read, and I was most disappointed in Where Angels Fear to Tread (the baby dying in the mud?!). Pleasantly surprised by You Are Here; I identified strongly with Marnie, and I enjoy quiet, character-driven stories. Also relieved to shift Brooklyn off my list since I'd owned it since 2018 🫣
I love these round ups. No good for my tbr but so interesting. I am going to try and make mine into a list later on. Graphics are beyond me.
Mine is easy to make into a list as I hardly read anything 
nothing new tbh. I've actually picked up some new hobbies so not even mad I'm not reading much, at least I didn't replace it with more social media eh
Seven Summers- Paige Toon
Daughters of Castle Deverill-Santa Montefiore
Just for the Summers- Abby Jimenez

Silence in Between has inspired me to read a non-fic on East Germany/the wall so have moved Beyond the Wall up my list.i went with two stars for mot too but that was really just for the supporting cast
i’ve been thinking about getting the silence in between and i love you x3 for a while though, i think you have now convinced me!
For me ILUx3 was one of those books I connected with straight away, the main character is pretty much the same age as me and it brought back all the nostalgia.

I know I’m constantly saying I’m moving things up my TBR but I’m really going to have to move Nantucket up my list!View attachment 3083743

I only managed two this month! Read ACOChristmas at the start of the month and it 100% put me off picking up a book for weeks, so I reverted to fan fiction. Managed Reckless in the last few days though.
This has happened to me a couple of times and I feel annoyed and freed, and then the streak updates and I'm back in it againView attachment 3083871

I need a break from ACO anyway but there's no way I'm going to read a Christmas novella, especially in summerYou don't need to read it at Christmas either, waste of paper!!ACOChristmas

I have just ordered like 9 books off the Harper Collins wesbite while they've got 50% off though
This happened to me last night! I only remembered at 11.52pm that I’d not read any of my kindle. If you ever do miss a day, you can put your kindle/phone in airplane mode, change the date to the missed day, read a few pages and then change back. I did that last night and it worked. Might take a few hours to update but when I checked this morning all was okayView attachment 3083871

ETA - I go on holiday in a couple of weeks and not sure if I’ll get chance to read every day. If I keep my kindle in airplane mode or don’t connect to WiFi, will it automatically keep my reading streak?
