monthly wrap up – Book Dust Magic

Books I read in October (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #BookBloggers #BookLovers #Reading #October

Hi Guys,

October was not the best month for me reading wise. The reading and reviewing slumps got me and I managed to finish only 6 books.
It wouldn’t be that bad if I didn’t have all the time in the world to actually read, but it is what it is now. I guess my brain just needed some time off from reading and to focus on other things.

Since then my reading slump has passed and I hope to read 10+ books in November.
This is the last month I’ll be focusing mostly on my Netgalley eARCs because in December I want to read all the books I didn’t get into this year, and of course, my festive novels.

You can expect the reviews for the books I’ve read in the next couple of weeks.

Here are the books I read in October:

Books I read in September (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #BookBloggers #BookLovers #Reading #September

Hi Guys,

I had pretty awesome month in September, reading wise. I got slumpish closer to the end, but I am still happy with the amount of books that I have read.
I managed to finish 12 books, and three of them were chapter books. Nine were novels.

So here are the books I read:

Books I read in August (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #BookBloggers #BookLovers #Reading #August

Hi Guys,

August was an amazing reading month for me. I managed to read 12 books and I am beyond happy about it, since my average number of books per month is 7.

I had plenty of free time on my hands this month, so that is the reason why I read so much.
I also started to focus on my Netgalley books that are on my shelf since forever.
My goal is to clean my tbr Netgalley shelf by the end of the year, and to upgrade my ratio to 95% (now it’s 73%).

I hope I will keep up with my reading pace in September as well. My goal for this month is also 12 books, and I hope 10 of them will be my Netgalley ARCs.

Without further ado, here are the books I read in August:

Books I read in July (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #BookBloggers #Booklovers #Reading #July

July was great month for me when it comes to reading. I managed to finish 10 books, and since my average number per month is 7, I am pretty happy with my result.

To be fair, I do have more free time on my hands now, so that is the main reason why I could finish that many books (even though I know for some of you it is not that big of a number). I hope that in August I will be able to read even more books (12 would be great, 14 would be amazing).

Book I read in April 2019 (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #BookBloggers #BookLovers #Reading #April

Hi guys,

It has been more then a week since April came to an end, and only today I am bringing you my (poor) reading wrap up.

April was the worst reading month quantity wise, but it was great quality wise since out of (only) four books I finished, three were 5 stars worth.

To be honest, I can’t even remember when was the last time I read so few books in one month. It was probably even before 2012.

This time I am blaming one book that I DNFed but lost few days on it, and one other that took me 15 days to finish.

Anyway, these are the books I read in April:

Favourite book of the month:

Even though I read only four books this time, I am still on track with my reading goal for 2019 (77 books), and if I’ll read 6 books each month from now on, I will reach it without doubt.

That is it!

Books I read in March 2019 (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #BookBloggers #BookLovers #Reading #March

Hi Guys!

After an awesome February I had an average March, when it comes to reading. I still beat it little, because I managed to read 8 books, and my average is usually 7, so I am pleased with that.
One particular book was so good that I am sure it will appear on my “favorite books of 2019” list.

Without further ado, here are the books I read in February:

Books I read in February 2019 (Monthly Reading Wrap Up) #bookbloggers #BookLovers #Reading #February

Hi guys!

February was the best reading month I had in a long time.
The reason for that is I had an injury and had to rest. I didn’t go to work, and since all I did for 5 days straight was reading, I managed to read 12 books.
I know 12 books per month is average for many of you, but keep in mind I am a really slow reader, so 12 books to me is one pretty big achievement.

Monthly Reading Wrap Up: January 2019 #bookbloggers #booklovers #Reading #January

Hi guys!

I know it’s been a while since I did my last monthly reading wrap up, and I am a bit late with this one too, but the thing is, yesterday I decided I want to do them again. I don’t read a lot of books per month, as some of you do, and I can only dream about reading 15+ books monthly (but I still dream about it), but I still want to do this every single month, if nothing, to keep track about my reading.

At the beginning of 2019 I made a decision to reread Vampire Academy, and I’ll be reading a book per month, following with Bloodlines.
I also challenged myself to read every single month at least one book with more then 500 pages.

This month I did good, and I hope I’ll continue with my progress in following months.

In the end, I finished 7 books, and I am happy about it. I wish I read more, but I am starting to make peace with my reading speed.

Here are the books I read in January:

November Reading Wrap Up #November #AmReading #BookLovers #BookBloggers

Hi Guys!
Are you ready for the last month of the year? I surely am, and am so excited for the last few books I’ll be reading before the year is over, but firstly, let me show you what books I finished during November.

During November I have read 9 books, and I am pretty satisfied with that.
Now only 9 books keep me from reaching my goal of reading 80 books in 2018.
I mean, I have already reached my Goodreads goal (60 books), but now when I see that I’ve read 71 (in reality, it’s 72 bc one book isn’t listed on Goodreads) I couldn’t help and mentally I increased the number.

These are the books I read in November:

October Reading Wrap Up #bookbloggers #booklovers #reading

OmG guys, it’s already November!
I have no idea how the times passed by so quickly, but at least I had some fun reading books while the days went…

In October I read 7 books, and I am really happy about it.
I didn’t push myself too hard, but I do plan to push myself in November, because there will be HoHOHo readathon and since we only have 2 months until the end of 2018, I want to end this year with as many finished books as possible, especially now when I am in a such a reading mood.

Anyway, these are the books that I read in October:
