Books On My Backlist

This year, I’ve been making an effort to read the books I’ve had the longest on my shelves. When I first got more into reading and joined bookstagram in 2019, I had bought some books from my want to read list just based on reviews from other people. I ended up reading some of them and saving some of them. I also started to acquire some books from publishers. This year, I’ve done pretty well on getting through some of the oldest books on my backlist stack, but here are the next ten that I hope to get to.

Prime (and Other) Purchases in July 2023

This month I’m once again linking up with Tanya to share what I’ve been purchasing via Amazon and elsewhere. However, since I bought so many things, I already posted about the things I bought for Gabbie’s dorm room and the new clothes I bought for myself! So this post is more of the Amazon purchases than the elsewhere purchases as far as dorm room and clothing goes (plus what I bought after the ones I already shared). These links are affiliate links, which means that if you click them and make a purchase, I may receive a small incentive.

What I Read in July 2023 Part 2

Today’s post covers the second half of the books I read in July 2023. I shared what I read in the first half of the month here. I shared my five star reads here. The Amazon links to the books I’ve read are affiliate links and if you use them and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission. If you’ve read any of these books or are interested in them, I’d love to hear about it in the comments!

Currently…August 2023

The first Wednesday of the month is the Currently link up and I’m once again linking up with Jennifer. This month’s prompt words are loving, looking forward to, starting, thinking, and wearing.
