Happy Halloween! I hope that whatever you are doing to celebrate the holiday, you are having a lovely time. I had a nice celebration with my friends on Friday, but tonight is more studying and eating candy vibes. If you have been keeping up with the blog, you will note that I have not posted a lot over the last couple of months, including foregoing a September wrap up. Although I did post about how this Fall I am not following a TBR.
In addition to not having a lot of time to blog, I haven’t had a lot of time to read over the past couple of months. As a result, a lot of my books have been audiobooks. My October reading month was mostly just okay, the only standout book I read was Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel. I did have some absolutely amazing reads in September, including True Biz by Sara Novic and In the Dream House by Carmen Maria Machado. September was a lot of literary fiction, but I have shifted into romance in October. I am excited to see what genre November brings!
