August/September Confessions

Whoa. So, September just flew by. August was a whirlwind too, which is why I am combining both months for this monthly wrap-up.  I have to say that even though I am a summer girl, I am actually looking forward to all that fall offers. Mostly because I am sick of all the rainy weather we have been having here in PA. Fingers crossed that we have a nice fall with some much needed sunshine! 

Books Read in August/September:
1.  The High Tide Club by Mary Kay Andrews - (Adult Fiction) 3.5 out of 5 stars
2.  The Shadowy Horses by Susanna Kearsley (Adult Fiction/Audio Book) - 4 out of 5 stars
3.  The Secret of the Irish Castle (Deverill #3) by Santa Montefiore - (Adult Historical Fiction) - 4 out of 5 stars
4.  The Perfect Couple by Elin Hilderbrand - (Adult Fiction) - 4 out of 5 stars
5.  Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman (Adult Fiction) - 4 out of 5 stars
6.  After I Do by Taylor Jenkins Reid (Adult Fiction) - 4 out of 5 stars (Review to come!)
7.  Dreams of Falling by Karen White (Adult Historical Fiction) - 4 out of 5 stars (Review to come!)

1.  Favorite Book:  I'm going to surprise myself and say The Perfect Couple. Hilderbrand's last book didn't "wow" me, but I was very entertained by this beach read/murder mystery.

2.  Biggest Disappointment: No disappointments this month! 

3.  Biggest Surprise: Something in the Water is a great thriller. I was pleasantly surprised by this debut author. 

4.  Favorite Post: I Watched the Show Before I Read the Book and Other Bookworm Confessions

5.  Favorite Part of August/September: In late August, we took our boys to Disney World for the first time. It was such a fun trip!
