July Reading List
Happy July, everyone!
It only took me seven months, but I'm finally on time with my Reading List post! (well, mostly, considering yesterday was Canada Day and I took the day off from writing work).
I made some good progress on my Goodreads Challenge last month and am now only two books behind schedule, which I'm hoping to catch up on this month.
I added in a third book last month that I didn't plan on reading which I thought I would just mention quickly before I get to my July Reading List. After finishing the two Diana Gabaldon short stories, I also read the first book in Mike Wells' "Lust, Money & Murder" series. I wasn't a massive fan of it. It was a quick read and the plot (mostly) moved along, but I felt that the majority of the book could have been condensed into a few chapters, and the whole series could probably have been condensed into one really interesting book. However, if you're interested in the crime thriller genre, you might give it a try.
This month, I'm going back to my classics roots and reading both Madeline Miller books: "The Song of Achilles" and "Circe." I don't often see good historical fiction books set in Ancient Greece or Rome, so I'm really excited for these two.
