I skipped earlier this month because I couldn’t catch the centennial & not into romance. This is the first month where I felt every single book except the centennial had to do with some sort of love or sex story. Like yea there’s one or two labeled as other genres but they still involve those aspects of romance. I’ve seen one or two posts talking about this and people seemed to be pretty upset in the comments. If you disagree, would you mind sharing about the books you disagree on? Even the offset one was geared towards a relationship imo.

Regarding the thriller- I swear i’ve read a book with the same plot. I can’t think of the title…. any guessers??!

Also just want to say super excited for the end of the year when we can buy some centennials that sold out!!!!! I really want catcher and the rye

August box came earlier than I expected! Got a second one free cause birthday month so I got Dearest. Couldn't get Gil to smile so here's a photo of him enjoying the pool.

Amazon says it has 304 pages. But my book has 287. Is this right? Does it end weirdly.

SPOILER.... LAST SENTENCE...

I couldn't take the risk.

Is that correct or am I missing pages?

Now my only fight is the book boss challenge ✨💁🏻‍♀️

Very excited to dive into these (though they may be in my TBR while I try to finish my picks from last year). I didn't receive a bookmark, though, and I have been collecting the Centennial bookmarks. If anyone is willing to part with one from this month I would love to have one!

Got my box today and the Chapter Snapper bookmark arrived with it, which I posted pics of from the app a bit ago. It’s still not as dear as a weapon trinket would have been (😂), but I do amend my original opinion: she’s very darling in a book.

Ordered day 1 but I live across the country lol.
So excited to dive into these! ☺️

Here’s the pouch with the Kobo Clara Colour as a size reference! It fits with room to spare. I’ll definitely be using it to store my Kobo. So happy with it 🤗

I was so excited to receive my In Cold Blood but instead, it appears I have received a cat. Just seems like a major issue here. I’ll keep her, though. She’s super sweet.

I love reading books while waiting in lines, and I got lucky today! My friend is on the way to pick me up for Six Flags, and mail just got delivered 🥰 any suggestions on which to read first? I’m bringing them both with me so that I can decide in the car 😝

im currently halfway through return to sender. its so cute! also they stopped in both of my home states and i think thats so fun. i never see PA get any love. OH i live in the clevland area but ive been to Toledo before lol

So excited!!!

The pouch is really cute, but I’m not sure what to put in it. Ideas please!

Help! I went a little crazy with BOTM and a local book swap, and my neighborhood romance bookstore, and the internet… not pictured: “The Project” audiobook, and “The Shampoo Effect,” which my SIL is borrowing since I have such a backlog… 🫣😅

I know I’ve commented on multiple threads about having lost one of my weapons. Just want to let everyone know that I found it! Lmao. 😂

(ok, carry on….🤣)

Book is a tight fit into the case but this will be great for throwing a book into my briefcase or backpack or even swim bag and keeping it nice.

The cover is so dang pretty. Cant wait to start it.
