What I Read: July

With ALA halfway through July and Summer Reading going like crazy at work, I felt like I didn't really have time to read that much-maybe because my TBR pile got huge after ALA!

But I managed to read 14 books this month, so I guess that's not too bad. Anyone have any tips on how to read faster? I need them! And yes, reviews will come-I need to catch up!

    I think that 13 is a pretty good month of reading. I sadly only read 6 books in July and I put that down to having my son home now and not much is getting red with taking him to swimming lessons, play dates and library activities. I think I need to find a secret to read faster. If I find out I will let you know.

    You're a reading rock star! I'm lucky to get six books read over a month. Some times if I'm lucky I'll get a few quick reads and that number will increase....but wow 14 is great! If you have the opportunity to share the advise on speed reading I'd love to hear about it.

13 District Mockingjay Tour: District 4

He's smart, he's funny, and he's charming. He stands up for what he believes, he's loyal and he's not afraid to do what's right. He's sensitive and caring but can also be strong and kick butt. He fights for Katniss and with Katniss. Peeta is a great diplomat and he knows how to bring people together. He can also be sneaky to get what he wants. Plus, did I mention he can bake? And he's hot!! But it's not just me! We have an underground club of sorts here in District Four-Seafaring Librarians for Peeta! Here's what some of our members had to say about their love for Peeta: - Team Peeta!! I love their relationship because they balance each other perfectly. Where ...
