September: Month End

September turned out to be a pretty lousy reading month for me. I read 7 books on my own which is ridiculous. Fortunately, the read alouds helped me to keep my head above water and bring my grand total to 15. It really has been an unusually hectic month for me and I don't know if October will be any better as my s-i-l will be visiting us but I do intended to at least try a lot harder. I'll be reading lots of graphic novels with the Cybils at least so my numbers should be good but hopefully I'll manage some novels as well as I have some great ones I want to get to this month!

Here's what I read this month. Total does not include DNF or xxx.

  2. You've had a great month. I love reading these warp-up posts; I find out about a lot of new books this way, and it appeals to the list-maker in me.

  4. You're all right, I did do well. It just is a bit of a downer when the numbers don't come out the way you want them too. The books I did manage to read were all (mostly) 4s & 5s so I shouldn't have been complaining!

    This month is going to be better all around though I can feel it in the air!
