I read an incredible amount of books this month!  I read 17 books, 2 short story anthologies, and 2 middle grade books for a total of 21.  This was obviously a great reading month, partly because I had a lot of vacation time (where I obviously read, but did other things, too like hike, camp and garden), but I also did not commit to reading as many ARC's this month which I think made a big difference.  Anyway, here is the rundown:
