Is it just me or did August pass in the blink of an eye? I’m not complaining because I’m ready to say goodbye to summer, but dang, I had plans to read more! 

This past month I learned that my reading really suffers over the weekend, especially with things starting to open up more in our state and my husband and I wanting to get out and safely do the things we love. The highlight of August was definitely movie theaters being back open! Aside from being obsessed with reading, I also am a huge movie lover!

I shared my September TMR yesterday and it’s another lofty pile like every month…I just can’t stop myself! I’ve learned having tall stacks with books that are must reads and books I want to read really helps to keep me focused, but allows me options. It worked really well for me in August and I’m hoping to have the same luck in September!

Have you read any of these? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Cheers to September reads! 🥂
