Welcome to The Monthly Round-Up. Join me as I look back on the past month to see which books I’ve read, the reviews I’ve posted, the goals I’ve completed and my all important Book of the Month!
| Books Read |
I’ve managed to complete a few goals this September but oh no! I still haven’t finished The Daylight War! My excuse is that it’s under a dust sheet whilst decorating… and I think I’ll stick with it! But hurrah I did manage to tick off my goal of reading at least two books featured in my Top Ten… Complete Series I Still Haven’t Finished and in doing so tick two books off my Top Ten… Books on my Fall TBR. It definitely feels good to complete some goals! I didn’t write as many reviews as I should have liked but I’ll definitely be making up for it this October. In some semblance of order, here are the nine books I’ve completed this September:
| 1. |
Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson
| 2. |
| 3. |
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
| 4. |
Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
| 5. |
The Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks

Thanks 😀 I love Sense and Sensibility too! I had last read it when I was still in primary school so it was about time for a re-read!! Hopefully I’ll get a review out soon 🙂
