This is the last of the 2016-style monthly stat posts – there are tweaks coming in January, but I’ll explain at the weekend.  Aren’t I a tease?!

I’m not even going to talk about how many books I’ve bought this month – and I wasn’t doing great even before the elbow-fracture induced pain purchases.  Bad Verity. Still, hopefully I’ll be able to restrain myself in December with the prospect of Christmas present books on the horizon.  Oh who am I kidding.

Not bad going this month on the book front – most of the ebooks were bought on holiday when I went on the Jodi Taylor binge, and the 1 actual book was a second hand one.

I was worried that August would be a book buying fest – and actually, in new book terms, I’ve been quite restrained.  Of course I bought 12 Chalet School paperbacks to add to/improve my collection, but they don’t count – because I’ve definitely read all of them before!

Could have been much worse, considering there were nights in the back end of July!  I didn’t buy too much compared to what I can do on nights, but I did read a fair bit.  Fingers crossed August doesn’t turn into a book buying-fest!

I was doing so well on the purchasing front – and then it got to the end of the month and I got stressed so started bookshop.  Not good considering that I haven’t read as much this month as I wanted either.  I’ll try and do better in July…

That shopping spree at Alnwick and some celebratory buying when I got a secondment allied with a bit of series glomming to make a Naughty Month for book buying.  And no non-fiction either – although I am still working my way through Lena Dunham, so it’s not like I’ve read nothing but fiction really…
