monthly wrap-up

  • July 2019 Wrap-Up

    So… I read three books in July. Is it a slump? Maybe? I don’t know. All I know is that’s a pretty shitty reading month, even for someone reading for quality over quantity. Okay, maybe it’s not so bad. Two of the books I read this month I gave five stars. But you know what’s

  • June 2019 Wrap-Up

    Hello, hello, hello! It’s time to wrap up all the books I read in June. Last month I read three novels and two short stories. I was in a bit of a reading slump and went through a period where I didn’t want to read anything. I blame my broken ankle. Fortunately, I can report

  • May 2019 Wrap-Up

    May was a better reading month than I realized. I’d thought I didn’t read much, but I actually managed to read seven books. I’m happy for me. But how was the quality? Well, it was so-so. I read two amazing books, but most of the rest were just okay. One was really bad (and if

  • April 2019 Wrap-Up

    I had thought this was going to be a slow reading month (given how long it took me to read the first book) and then suddenly I went on a reading rampage at the end. I mean, I only read three books and they were fairly short, but I read them in less than a

  • January 2019 Wrap-Up

    I have to say, January was a pretty good reading month for me. I read six books and rated most of them at least four stars. In fact, I think I read not one but two books that will make my best list this year. Unfortunately, I also read a book that will be on

    New year, new content! But first, I have one more loose end I have to tie off before I leave 2018 behind for good. I’ve got to tell you about all the books I read in December. During the final month of 2018, I read four short stories, two short story anthologies, five novels, and

  • November 2018 Wrap-Up

    After the jam-packed reading month that was October, it was almost a guarantee this month would be a backslide. The good news is, it wasn’t terrible. I read five books and the content was decent overall. I even managed to read two books from my TBR for the rest of the year. I also got

  • October 2018 Wrap-Up

    Spooky season is, unfortunately, over. It always goes by too fast. Fortunately, this year I decided to read exclusively dark and spooky books. That way, not only did I stay in the spirit all month long, but I can then make spooky season live on through this post. At the beginning of the month, I

  • September 2018 Wrap-Up

    Ba de ya, say do you remember? Ba de ya, reading in September? I sure do. In fact, I had a pretty dang great reading month. This month I read six novels, one novella, and one graphic novel. In total, I read eight books. Overall, the quality was pretty good too. So, let’s jump right

But before we enter spooky season, we have to finish up with summer. First step? Telling my loyal followers all about the books I read this month. I don’t know
