📚 July Reading Wrap-Up | 16 Books, Surprises, & One DNF!
It’s time for my July Reading Wrap-Up! I read 16 books this month—one more than last month—and while one ended up being a DNF, I still powered through a variety of genres and emotions. From unexpected favorites to books that didn’t quite land, it was a month of discovery, reflection, and lots of late-night reading. Come see what made the list, what I loved, and what I’m looking forward to next!
