Summary:
I spent most of August watching videos on Youtube. I've found a new favorite Youtuber, and I'd link him here but he's kind of vulgar and ridiculous. Didn't get too much reading done, not a surprise, the American school system is still a part of my routine. (Meaning it was summer and I wasn't going to do too many productive things). Plus I tend to read 2x or 3x as much in November and December so I'm looking forward to that! ARC August didn't go too well, I only read two but I'll get to two more within the next week without a doubt. I haven't worked on the reviews of the ones I did read though, bad me! I did really love both books (Afterworlds and Salt & Storm) but both had problems I'll tell you guys about later. Regardless, high recommendations for both from me! How was everyone else's August?
