I’m shocked and pleased to report that I had my best reading month of the year in August! I hit most of my ARC August goals and did the best I’ve ever done on Bookish Bingo.
If we’re going by my ARC August Sign Up Post, I only read two out of the five e-arcs I planned to but I enjoyed them both, and I read all five of the print arcs I planned to (with two DNFs). I snuck in one e-arc and one print arc not on my list as well, for a total of 7 books read and 2 DNFs:

The Tomb by S.A. Bodeen
Empire of Sand by Tasha Suri
Check, Please!: Hockey by Ngozi Ukazu
Unclaimed Baggage by Jen Doll
Mask of Shadows by Linsey Miller
American Panda by Gloria Chao
The Chase by Elle Kennedy
Seafire (DNF) by Natalie C. Parker
What The Woods Keep (DNF) by Katya de Becerra

I normally fill a bunch of squares but only get one or two bingos. This season I got FOUR!! If I had finished two more books this past weekend (sob), I would have had six. But I’m still pretty proud 😀
