Any month where I go on holiday means a good month in the stats usually, and this is no exception – because the holiday was longer than usual. I’m pretty pleased with myself for the amount of NetGalley books I read, but also because despite being away from home I still managed to read a fair few from the pile. We’ll skate over how many I bought though.
Bonus picture: another picture from the holiday…

Verity Reads Books (lots of them) 
38 is an impressive amount of reading in one month. Well done. Holidays are so great for being able to read without life getting in the way.
