The Bookmark Lit Bulletin wraps up the last month in reading and what was on the blog, as well as what’s coming up next. You can check out my book haul, books read, posts shared, challenge updates, etc. You can read past bulletins here. If you’re looking for more personal updates, you can check out my Lauren Lately feature; it highlights my life events and non-bookish fun from the previous 30 days.
This was a rough reading month. It was really hard to even decide what my favorites were! My overall rating is a full star less than last month’s rating. I know I’ll be finishing the year strong because I have plenty of other books to read that I’m looking forward to.
