In July 2022, I read 4 titles, sticking to my two IWSG Book Club reads and two exploratory reads. I’m behind in my Goodreads challenge but have plenty of time to catch up, Still, I’ve been playing catch up for a while, even this post is a mash-up to save time and makeup time.

That’s where I post an overview of what I’ve been reading, watching, and writing quarterly, as well as talk about my love of reading while offering tips for having a healthy reading lifestyle. You can also click the Goodreads links to see the thorough reviews. At the bottom of this post, you’ll also be able to watch a video of my monthly reviews, if that’s more your style.
