July has been a good month, with traveling to Scotland, still being on summer break and books read. I have read a pretty good bunch of books this month. Scotland was amazing. I saw some great castles and other sights that were amazing. The photo is of Sterling Castle, our first castle on our trip through Scotland.
Books Read in July:
58. Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen
57. Personal Demon by Kelley Armstrong
56. The Reptile Room by Lemony Snicket
55. Finger Lickin' Fifteen by Janet Evanovich
54. The Castaways by Elin Hilderbrand
53. Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith
52. Eighth Grade Bites: The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod by Heather Brewer
I thought I would have had more books read on the trip but I was so busy most days and nights. Only 7 books read this month. Look for my review of Northanger Abbey soon and also a post about my time in Bath enjoying all things Austen. I brought back a small gift from the Jane Austen Center to give away.
Well, I am off again tomorrow. The next two weeks will be spent in California with family. Second trip there this summer. My younger sister is expecting her first child and I am hoping that she will deliver the week I am there. Another niece to spoil. :)
