July Wrap Up | 2017 – Adele Is Reading

monthly-wrap-up-book-haul-1 Hello, everyone! Today’s post will be my Wrap-Up for July. July was an especially weird month for me, weather wise. I remember it rained for a little bit here and there. Usually in the summer months it doesn’t rain. At all. Let’s get down to it, shall we?

My TBR for July consisted of 4 books: The first book would be a re-read, and the rest being books I haven’t read before but, they’re part of their own series. The books making my TBR this month were (from left to right): The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer (The Ubncemoning of Mara Dyer, #1) by Michelle Hodkin, The Infinite (Gates of Thread and Stone, #2) by Lori M. Lee, Frost Like Night (Snow Like Ashes, #3) by Sara Raasch, and finally, The Fate of the Tearling (The Queen of the Tearling, #3) by Erika Johansen.

I didn’t get around to finishing The Fate of the Tearling this month. In fact, after I publish this post, I’m going to get started on reading it! I know for a fact that though, that I won’t get around to finishing The Fate of the Tearling today, since it’s decidedly bigger than its’ previous books. I’ll probably end up finishing The Fate of the Tearling in a couple of days.

Books Read in July: 15

The books I read this month are pretty much all over the genre-map. I mostly read Fantasy themed novels though, which is a given since I really enjoy reading Fantasy. However, there were a few Contemporary books as well. Some I enjoyed, some I didn’t; Contemporary books are usually a hit or miss for me.

Thoughts from this Month:

[07.11] For the past week or so, I’ve gotten my sleeping schedule on a good track. I go to sleep between 8 – 9/9:30PM, wake up at 4 – 5AM. The problem is, I’m getting tired and loopy after about, midday. I don’t know what to do, except maybe start a coffee addiction. Except I don’t like coffee. Do you know of any non-coffee related ways I could stay up throughout the day?

That’s all for this month, friends! What did you do this month? I didn’t do very much this month beside read (as you can tell by the 15 books I read this month! Haha).

Happy Reading!
