Well, July was interesting. I had more time to read but I couldn't make myself read. I kept getting distracted by EVERYTHING around me. I felt like I had ADD. Luckily, I did get some books done:
- 14 by Peter Clines 4 stars
- Dreams of Joy by Lisa See (audiobook) 4.5 stars
- Blood and Bone by Don Hoesel 4 stars
- Catalyst by Marc Johnson 3.5 stars
- Dance the Moon Down by Robert Bartram 5 stars!!!
For RAK, I was able to send out one book to Kate @ Kate's Book Life:
I received two books! One ebook from Ella @ Read into Hiding, and one print from Emily @ Doodle's Book Blog:
