I am SO BEHIND. But I am catching up in the New Year, after a lovely birthday trip to Las Vegas (yes, yes, I’ll post about it, and also all the other posts!) But here’s the first of many – my much promised, and much delinquent, September book round up. For what it’s worth, my final total for the year was 123! In September, there were only 7 but they were great – and primarily by KJ Charles, ha!

The August Book Round Up
Well, August was a slightly slower month for books – not for any nefarious reason, really. I had a hard time focusing to finish the book I had going while I was in Vegas at the end of the month, and a few I read earlier in the month were longer, so it naturally lead to reading slightly less overall. I’ve been dealing with COVID fog this week so only just finished my last August read here at the beginning of September. Also, my kiddo started school and that was all consuming, even though I was sick and couldn’t attend meet the teacher or drop her off at all!

I have another post ready to go that I’ll try and work on tomorrow, but I am currently on a layover in the Dallas airport on my way to Las Vegas for this years Labor Day Oasis Spanking Party. Wish me luck. I’m anxious as fuck, dealing with big feelings, and convinced I won’t play at all. July was a busy month for me, reading (or listening) wise. Part of that is because I listened to another entire series by CJ Archer – her Necromancer series. It wasn’t nearly as gruesome as I was expecting and included some fun pop culture things. To my surprise when I started, it had ten books! But it was good and Archer’s writing is easy distracting listening for me. I also tackled a “classic” that I’d never read – Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea! It was…a lot. But not bad – good story but holy droll writing at times.
