As you may know I have a book review blog. There are at least 25 posts each month – books I’ve read as part of book tours, books I’ve read to my students in the library, and books I have previewed for the library or the Land of Enchantment Award. There are also spotlights from books I haven’t read but you might be interested in, as well as some author interviews.
Once a month I share my favorite reads from the previous month. If you don’t have time to read all my reviews in a month – this post will alert you to my favorites, ones you may want to add to your collection. Because of the start of school I did not get my July favorites posted last month so I have included my favorites from July and August in this post. Each book is linked to my review post at janemouttet.wordpress.com. There is also an Amazon Affiliate link should you want to purchase the book and help support this blog.
