August Wrap Up

My motivation and energy have been extremely low this month, so my reading, writing, and editing have taken a big nose dive. I am thankful I had a few short stories on my Kindle; it is just a shame they were not for me.

I have paused my reading of ACOWAR. I am loving every single page, especially Az, but my mood-reading ways have made me switch gears for the time being. I just did not want to force myself to finish the rest as it would no longer be enjoyable, so instead I am reading The Hunger Games. I am loving it. I love the films anyway and watch them nearly every year, so I am not surprised, but I have teared up so many times already!

I hope I get to read more this month, and I hope you are loving the books that have you gripped.

What is your favourite season? Mine is autumn, and not just because I was born in it. I just love all things autumnal and spooky. Autumn has already started for me; the pumpkin lights are on, the pumpkin spice lattes have been flowing, and I am watching Gilmore Girls as I type this.
