Monthly Wrap-Up (August 2020)

Welcome to my monthly wrap-up post for August 2020! I had this post ready to go beyond this intro section way before the end of the month. Who knew that it would take this long to write my intro?! Haha. I’m gonna blame work because I spend almost every waking moment thinking about this one project we’re working on right now. But anyway, back to the books! I seem to have fallen behind a bit again (although nowhere near as bad as earlier this year) and I’m gonna blame work for that too, hahaha. Audiobooks have been my saviours honestly. I got a subscription to Scribd a few months ago, and it’s been life-changing! I’ve been able to enjoy my books while driving, doing laundry, working out, doing dishes, etc. etc.

Do you listen to audiobooks?

Also, continue reading to see what’s happened on the blog, and with my reading in general, this August!

So, I changed my reading goal to 100 books. The other goal just felt unattainable due to a long reading slump I had earlier this year and I was getting stressed out. I feel much better now!

  1. Oooh how is the dark tide on audio? That’s very high on my tbr list! I’m not sure if i want to read it or listen to it! I LOVE mixing audiobooks with reading the hard copy myself. I’ll read it during the day then listen to the audiobook when I’m to sleepy to keep my eyes open 🙂

    I highly recommend You Should See Me In A Crown by Leah Johnson! If you haven’t read it. I just finished it on audiobook. The narrator did a FANTASTIC job

    1. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to find an audiobook version for The Dark Tide 🙁 but I did enjoy it! Here’s my review if you’re curious: https://flaviathebibliophile.com/the-dark-tide-review/

      And oh my gosh I love mixing audiobooks with reading too! I tend to listen to the audio while I’m working on simple tasks or running errands 🙂

      Also You Should See Me in a Crown is definitely on my list but you just bumped it up the pile with your comment 😉 I’ll be sure to grab the audiobook for it too!

  2. I had to change my reading goal too, I aimed too high. I hope you enjoy Burn Our Bodies down, I liked it, even if it was a little on the weird side 🙂

    1. Ahhh I’m sorry! I’m glad that we both made the healthy choice by lowering our goals though. And yeah I did enjoy Burn Our Bodies Down! I think it helped that I read it closer to Halloween 😉 since I lean more toward the weird and spooky around that time of year haha
