Another month,
another monthly recap. Someday I'll actually get these blog posts out
on time.
Books Read
As Old as Time
– 4.5/5
I didn't do a lot of
reading in August. I'm hoping that will change with September and
I'll get at least two books read.
Movies Watched
Christopher Robin
This movie was so
good and adorable. I mean it's Winnie-the-Pooh, adorable was pretty
much guaranteed. It was nice seeing a grown-up Christopher Robin
revisiting his childhood and his friends from the Hundred Acre Woods.
There were also some moments that provided some good laughs.
September's Book of
the Month
Hell in a
Handbasket
They say the road
to hell is paved in good intentions, and Rose Gardner can’t shake
the notion she’s headed there in a handbasket. She feels
responsible for the death of a woman she tried—and failed—to save
with her visions, and though she intends to do the “right” thing
and tell James Malcolm she can’t possibly accept his offer of a
relationship, she hasn’t yet mustered the strength. Worst of all,
her sister is terminally ill, and there isn’t a thing she can do to
save her.
When a new case
falls into Rose’s lap, she eagerly shifts her attention to someone
else’s problems—except it’s Henryetta, and every person, and
problem, is somehow connected. The case will bring her back into
contact with James, whom she still hasn’t answered, and force her
to confront her past in other unexpected ways.
I'm taking a step
back from YA fiction this month and moving on to a mystery instead.
I'm also hoping to actually have my review up this month to have it
really be a book of the month, instead of it happening the beginning
of October like the past two books of the month. Fingers crossed.
