Updates: August 2015 Wrap-Up!

It is September 1st, which means it is time for another Books and Ladders monthly wrap-up! Some exciting things happened this month for me, including becoming Nicola's co-blogger on Queen of the Bookshelves! We are having lots of fun blogging together there and I hope you guys like the change in pace that you're getting. This post is going to look a little different than the last monthly wrap-ups I did because I didn't read as much this month as I have in the past. I also thought it would serve a bit as an actual update post rather than just a giving you all my reviews in one spot (I have a search bar!)

Let me know if there is anything that you want to see more of/less of and I can do my best to accommodate!

Don't forget that Nicola is hosting #FACSaturday which is a spin-off of #FAC16 highlighting one book a week until January! This past week was THE CROWN'S GAME by Evelyn Skye and next week is OF FIRE AND STARS by Audrey Coulthurst. If you have any questions about these, direct them my way since Nicola is on vacay until Friday! We had a lot of fun last time and hope more people come and join us this time around.

I participated in ARCAugust hosted by Read. Sleep. Repeat. and got a whopping 10 ARCs crossed off my list. I also read a lot of other books this month and published reviews for the majority of them. Although some of them will be posted either this week or at a later date!
--
But the biggest part of August for me was the release of AIR AWAKENS by Elise Kova and the cover reveal for FIRE FALLING! I have chatted and recommended Air Awakens over and over, but I finally got to share my love for this amazing book with everyone else. And the cover for Fire Falling is pure gold. The details and the colours are just on point.

Also if you need support after reading Air Awakens, come join our support group on Goodreads!
