This will be a very short post as I did NOTHING for my challenges last month and it was GREAT! I did however read two ARCs (The Absolutist and The Secret Lives of Codebreakers), three library books (The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, Tinker, Tailor, Solider, Spy and The Man Who Knew Too Much) and re-read the first four Harry Potter novels. Nine books isn’t bad for a month, especially as I relaxed and enjoyed them and didn’t have to worry about posting (even though I did) or about meeting numbers for a challenge. July was also the two-year anniversary of The Oddness of Moving Things and I did a general recap of the past year.
Challenge Progress
Just to keep this post somewhat standard, I’ve kept this section in. Nothing has changed from last month so I remain at 20/31 (65%). I plan on reading Great Expectations as my next book once I finish the Harry Potter series.

I know! Sometimes you just have to take a break. It’ll help us all in the long run, I say.
