Way hard to pick a favorite this month. I think I'm going to have to go with Coop though, surprisingly, since it's so different from what I normally read! Love it when that happens! The Queen of Attolia is a very close second though.
Plans for next month:
- Review Hidden Wives for a TLC Blog Tour later on this month
- Finish Captivate
- Finish The Dragon Reborn
- Read a classic like, say, Bleak House! :) (oh but this cracks me up!)
- Read a book from my TBR challenge list (maybe The Curious Incident....)
- The King of Attolia! More Gen please.....
- Get a start on Fall of Giants
- Spells
- Find that cowboy book Susan at Bloggin' 'Bout Books recommended, then read it!
- Read Son of Shadows before it's due
- Find out what the deal is with Bree Tanner
What was your favorite book you read this month? What plans do you have for July?
Looks like you've done really well this past month!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good month with some great reads. You also have some set some very specific reading goals for this month, good luck with those.
ReplyDeleteYou did indeed have a good reading month!
ReplyDeleteI'll revisit Coop, I was intrigued by it, but not quite sure when I first heard about it.
My top read for the month was Unaccustomed Earth, which I read for one of my book clubs.
I hope you have a great July!
