Read in July

 Hi guys,

firstly I have to apologize for being away from the blog for such a long time. I have no other excuses than that my mind simply hasn't been in this in a long time. This whole year has been a struggle for me, reading and blogging-wise (okay maybe not reading wise but definitely blog-wise!). Here I am, with my first monthly summary since God knows how long. Thing is, I have not read that much this month. Nowhere near as much as I'd hoped for (also, can we talk about the that tomorrow is August?! How on earth did that happen?). But, I am going to soldier through this anyway.

Hopefully this will be the start of me actually using this blog more. In roughly a week, I'll go back to work meaning updates very frequently will be hard for me. However, I'm going to try to blog at least once a week, hopefully more. I'm not promising anything; rather, I am hoping. 

Anyways, here's the books I've read in July:

- Familjen by Johanna Lerneby Bäckström (5 July - 15 July, 3 stars)
- The Love Song of Ivy K. Hawlovwe by Hannah Moskowitz (June 29 - July 16, 5 stars)
- Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas (July 16 - July 22, 4 stars)

This month was a solid 4/5 when it comes to the books I chose. I also started another book that I unfortunately haven't had time to finish. Quality-wise, this month was good but not really quantity-wise. Onto August!
