August 2018 Monthly Wrap Up


So most of August was spent reading title related to dogs for  La La in the Library and  Jo's Book Blog #DogDaysOfSummer challenge.  It was so much fun and I'm sure it's most of the reason why I managed to read so much.  Let's take a look at the titles!

Manifest Recall: Alan Baxter 4/5
Atomic Frenchie: Tom Sniegoski & Tom McWeeney 5/5
Rattus New Yorkus: Hunter Shea 5/5
Action Lab: Vito Delsante 5/5
Creature: Hunter Shea 5/5
Peanuts - Where Beagles Dare: James Cooper 4/5
Drinking from the Trough: Mary Carlson 3/5
City Dog: Alison Pace 4/5
Hitting the Books: Jenn McKinlay 5/5
Dog Man: Dave Pilkey 3/5
Isosceles' Day: Kevin J. Meehan 5/5
Neverworld Wake: Marisha Pessl 4/5
The Mouth in the Dark: Tim Waggoner 4/5


So overall I read 13 things and really, it would be hard to pick a favorite this month.  However, since nothing rated lower than a 3/5, I consider the month a rocking success.

As part of the Dog Days Challenge, Jo is donating a dollar for every book read to her local charity.  I think this is an awesome idea and am proud to say, I read 9 books featuring dogs.  "Hitting the Books" is a cozy where the MC has a loyal dog who often saves her life and Buttons the beagle is very prominent in "Creature" so I'm counting both of them.  

How was your reading in August?
