July Stats

Looking Back at July: I got to host Lindsey Leavitt in support of A Farewell to Charms-check out her interview! It was a very productive month for me, reading 29 books (I had been averaging 25 a month) but alas while I'm in the reading groove, I have fallen out of the habit of writing reviews. It is taking me much longer than I would like to put my thoughts down-there may be some mini-reviews coming your way if I don't get inspired soon!

Looking Forward to August: Another fantastic mix of recent YA along with a few adult books-I like to mix it up! I am also working on some discussion posts about blogging/the process of writing reviews, which is a bit ironic considering my current slump. I'm hoping it will be interesting for bloggers and non-bloggers alike. Along with that, I hope to pull myself out of my reviewing funk because I currently have about seven posts in draft and I would really like to hit publish on them. What do you do to pull yourself out of a reviewing slump?
