July!
In July I read 7 books for a total of 2,323 pages and an average of 75 pages per day. I was on vacation for a week, and at one point I was reading more than one book at once, so I’m very happy with my numbers. Added a lot of books to my challenge list too!

Notable Quote: “We’re all afraid of many things, but if you make yourself smaller or let your fear confine you, then you really aren’t your own person at all. The real question is whether or not you will risk what it takes to be happy.”
