Comments

It was a good month for reading!  My favorite of the month was definitely The Lost Hero!  The boys and I can't wait to start The Son of Neptune.  I also enjoyed starting the Vampire Academy and Sandman series.  I got a few knocked out my Mount TBR and a few from my general TBR list.  I'm ahead on my GoodReads challenge and want to stay that way.  I'll try to keep the reading going strong for the rest of the summer.  Wish me luck!
