Monthly Reading Wrap Up 🌞 June & July 2021

Hello everyone! It's been a hot minute since I've made an appearance here on the blog. The last couple of months have been quite busy between travel, beginning my I-35 Challenge training, and helping Brett prep for a certification exam, and I haven't made the time to update y'all here. So sorry about that! I have been quite active on other platforms thought (specifically Insta and YouTube) so if you're ever wondering what I'm up to, be sure to check out those corners of the internet! Either way, I've missed blogging and I wanted to catch you up to speed on my reading over the last two months. Spoiler alert - it's A LOT!

During the months of June and July I read a total of 17 books which I am so happy with! I've read a few I've really loved (mostly contemporary romances!) and a few not so much. I've also been doing some fun reading vlogs over on my channel, like the books with Summer in the Title challenge and the Word Association Challenge! It's been fun to think of creative ways to theme my reading over the past few months and I'm excited to continue to do so. Be on the lookout for other fun reading vlogs in the future!

As summer comes to a close (😭) and the academic year gets underway once again, it's very likely that my reading will slow WAY down, but either way I've been so happy with the amount of reading I've been able to accomplish this summer and I hope I can end my favorite season strong in the month of August with some memorable reads. 

BUT without further adieu, here are my reading stats for June & July!
