What I've Read So Far This Month: October 2020

This month has been a little slower for reading than I anticipated. But I've still managed to read 3 books & I'm hoping to get at least 2 more in before the end of the month.

Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret by Judy Blume

This book came out 50 years ago this month! I decided to read it for the first time & I loved it. It was hilarious! Makes me want to read more of her stuff that I haven't read before.

Through the Grinder by Cleo Coyle

This is book #2 in this series. We read the first one last month for our book club book & I really enjoyed it so I'm going to continue with the series.

Gabriel's Inferno by Sylvain Reynard

I just finished this book today. I'm not sure yet if I'm going to continue with the series. I liked the story & the writing was pretty good. It's slightly different from others like this which is why I feel like there's a little bit more going on. Plus it's really long, over 500 pages! We'll see what happens. Apparently there is also a movie!? Has anyone seen it? I'm curious now.

September 2020 Wrap-Up & October 2020 TBR

I read 6 books this last month! It's been quite a while since I did that #proud! I'm hoping to read at least that many next month, but we'll see what happens. I haven't been really doing individual reviews as much & I have to admit I've enjoyed reading more. We'll see what the future holds for this blog.

September 2020 Wrap-Up

The Honey Don't List by Christina Lauren

I did a little mini review of this book here.

Ratscalibur by Josh Lieb

I did a little mini review of this book here.

Red Velvet Revenge & Going, Going, Ganache by Jenn McKinlay

I did a little mini review of Red Velvet Revenge here. The other book was a little surprising in the end & it definitely makes me want to see what's going to happen with the rest of the series. Mel (one of the main characters) has impressed me as far as these types of books & their characters go. She's level headed, compassionate, & smart. She doesn't go off & willy nilly do things that normally happen to these other characters in these types of books. That was until that last book! She is acting so strange & I'm not sure where things are going.

On What Grounds by Cleo Coyle

I did a little mini review of this book here.

The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix

I did a little mini review of this book here. It was creepy & FANTASTIC!!!

Are You There God? It's Me Margaret by Judy Blume

I've already finished this book over the weekend. I had never read it but the book came out 50 years ago last week so I thought why not? It was hilarious!!! If you were never a pre pubescent teenage girl you won't get it.
