July 2017 Books Read: 8
2017 Goodreads Challenge: 50/60
Wow! I am 10 books away from completing my Goodreads Challenge goal already! I think I should up it to 75… what do you guys think? So many great books were read! Most were 4.5-5 stars with only 2 being 3 stars! That’s rare. Normally there’s always 1 that’s a dud for me. I am still in the middle of job searching (sigh) so I’ve had lots of time to read but I really can’t wait to get a job and read during my commute! Here’s what I’ve read this month:

I read and loved Homegoing this month as well!
I am so sad to see that so many people are disappointed with Artemis! It was one of my most anticipated releases! I am looking forward to your review!

I think people are just comparing it to The Martian. Plus, a male writing a female part was very obvious (haha)! Don’t let other people’s opinions deter you! The science and space stuff was on point!

You’re so close to reaching your goal! Congrats. 🙂 I’m not a huge fan of Jennifer E Smith, so I don’t think I’ll be reading The Geography if You and Me. I want to read Geekarella soon! I have only heard wonderful things. Good to see that you really liked it too. 🙂

Yeah. Smith’s book was okay but I don’t feel the need to go out and grab another of her books. I hope you love Geekerella as much as I did!
