July Wrap Up and August TBR

Hello friends! Somehow, July has just sped by. I don't know where the rest of the month went, but here we are, so it is time for the July wrap-up! This month was super crazy, so I am ashamed to admit that I only read two out of the seven books on my TBR, and one book that was not on the TBR. A total of three books in one month is extremely low for me (especially when one of the books was a novella). I actually went a week without reading anything at one point.... Remember when I said this in my July TBR post? :

So, that means that all books on my TBR are also available on Kindle Unlimited, and who knows? I may finish my TBR and find more books to give you this month!

Yeah, that definitely didn't happen... anyway, July was a weird month. But enough about that, here are the books I read!


Accused a Traitor by Susan M. Robinson

  • Mistaken identity

  • Falsely accused

  • Romantic suspense

  • Post Civil War

  • Redemption

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Liberty River Rivals by Cora Mabry

  • Mistaken identity

  • Enemies to lovers

  • Fourth of July novella

  • Contemporary Romance

  • Small town romance

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Love Comes Softly by Janette Oke

  • Marriage of convenience

  • Strong Christian faith

  • Frontier life

  • Strangers to lovers

  • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Of the books I read, I would have to say that the best book of the month award (I just made that award up, but I kind of like it!) goes to Love Comes Softly by Janette Oke! This is the first book in an eight book series and is a favorite of mine, thought I have read it at least four times now.


Now, lets discuss August...

This month, my TBR is fairly simple. I recently signed up to be on Jennie Goutet's launch team for her new book, Wit, Wiles, and Courtship releasing later this month. However, after receiving the ARC copy, I realized that it was actually book three in The Earl's Sisters series. So, rather than jumping straight into book three, I decided to read books one and two first. Hopefully I enjoy them because if not... that would be difficult given I have three books to read. In addition, I will also be continuing the Love Comes Softly Series by Janette Oke. I am unsure how many of those I will get done this month, but I will at least read one or two of them. Unfortunately, none of the books on my tbr this month are on Kindle Unlimited, but that does not mean you can't enjoy them by trying to find them at your local library, bookstore, or on Amazon! If I have some spare time (or if I just feel like it!) I am also hoping to read some more books that I did not get to last month.


Anyway, that is all for today! Hope you have a great day and keep a look out for my upcoming reviews.

Cool books! I've never read Love Comes Softly, but I've seen the movie and enjoyed it! I'll have to see if my library has the book.

The movies are pretty good! They change a whole lot, though, especially towards the end. Personally, after reading the books, I wasn't as impressed by the movies. I hope you get a chance to try them!
