July 2009 Wrap Up
August 13th, 2009
Well better late than never I always say. July was a good reading month for me. I read 13 books. I’m already not feeling as motivated for August so we’ll see. So here’s the list for July…
- You Make Me Feel Like Dancing by Allison Bottke (437 pgs)
- The Castaways by Elin Hilderbrand (355 pgs)
- The Local News by Miriam Gershow (357 pgs)
- A Worthy Legacy by Tomi Akinyanmi (101 pgs)
- Two Years, No Rain by Shawn Klomparens (370 pgs)
- Song of Renewal by Emily Sue Harvey (150 pgs)
- The Thing Around Your Neck by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (218 pgs)
- The Sinful Life of Lucy Burns by Elizabeth Leiknes (167 pgs)
- Holly’s Inbox by Holly Denham (Bill Surie) (665 pgs)
- The Book of Unholy Mischief by Elle Newmark (367 pgs)
- Summer House by Nancy Thayer (351 pgs)
- Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella (435 pgs)
- Pope Joan by Donna Woolfolk Cross (422 pgs)
As you can see I’m at 71 books at the end of July so I’m well on my way for meeting my goal of 100 books for the year. Yahooooooo – I’ll actually complete a challenge. Well I guess I’d better not speak to soon right. lol.
It’s so hard to pick favorites because I really enjoyed so many of these but let’s see I’d say Holly’s Inbox and Pope Joan. I’ve got lots of good books planned for August, a few which I’ve already read and a bunch I’m really looking forward to.
How about you? Was July a good reading month for you?
What an impressive list!
Looks like you had a great reading month, Dar! I wish I could read as fast as you!
Fantastic list, Dar. I really liked Pope Joan and I need to get hold of a copy of Holly's Inbox!! I read Pope Joan with an online book club a few years ago. Can't wait to see the movie!
wow! Girl!
Wow 71 books! That's amazing. You will definitely make 100, if not 120!
I am really looking forward to joining this challenge in 2010.I found out too late this year.That is an impressive list you have though.Don't think I could ever better that.Good going!!
13????
Dar! you all make me feel so sad! You know at max I can read 4-5
Thats an impressive list girlie!
Impressive! Well done, Dar!
I really hope to win a copy of the Twenties Girl on your blog giveaway.
You're a reading animal! I think next year, you will have to set your goal a little higher! You're going to hit your hundred with time to spare!
Super job! I'm only at 36 for the year, I don't think I'll hit my goal of 100, but I've already read more books than I usually do in a year!
I do want to read Holly's Inbox. That does sound like a good one.
Congrats to you Dar…I'm with Veens, lucky to read 4 in a month. And to think that you read this many when you were even slowed down for a while because of your eye problem! You are a reading maniac! lol
Great month for you
Just checked my book, 10 books, oh, seems I had a good month too
Wow, 71 books…you are on a roll! I know you can meet that goal!
I have not idea how many I've read…I'm afraid to look.
You had a very good month. You will have no problem of reaching your goal of 100 books by the end of the year! Yay!
wow 71! way to go :O)

You had a great reading month. I loved all of your reviews and as usual you've contributed heavily to my library check-out problem and my ever-growing TBR list!!! Take it easy on me this month will ya? LOL!!
That's a lot of books for one month! And you right, better late than never. For me, it's actually better late than early since I completely forgot about posting my monthly summary and if it wasn't for your post I would not post it at all!
Wow — great July!
Wow.. you did awesome.!
Great month! You're on a roll!
