August Round-Up and Book of the Month!


August's Book of the Month is Hurt by Tabitha Suzuma



I think I've had one of my best reading months ever this month as everything I read got either a 4 or 4.5 star rating! I read some excellent books this past month and I was all set on my book of the month and then I finished Hurt on Saturday night and it was a total game changer. I haven't cried over a book like I did over Hurt for a long time. I was so emotionally invested and I'm still thinking about it now days later. I swear that Tabitha takes joy in breaking her fans with those punch-in-the-gut endings of hers. I absolutely loved this book and will have a review up for it as soon as I can piece my thoughts and feelings into coherent sentences!
