July 2015 Wrap-Up

Here's a summary of my book-related activity for July. It was my first full month with no homework in over two years! It was wonderful to have more time to read, and to catch up on some blogging activities. I've already scheduled a few posts, and I'm hoping to write enough by the end of August to keep this blog active during the school year.
