I’m celebrating in my head because we’re so close to autumn. I can already feel it; the air is getting colder, some leaves are turning, and I’m starting to see Halloween products in some shops.

July has been my most productive reading month this year so far, I read nine books, and I think it’s primarily thanks to the weather.
