The Good: 34 posts for July! That's because I started posting the daily booktalks I've been posting to my school library's website to this blog as well as the public library's FB page. But I also got around to reviewing more. 

The Bad: Not much. Wish I could review more because much of what I'm reading is quite wonderful!
