    I only read seven books in August (I work in a school, and we were slammed with start-of-the-year paperwork & activities). My favorite was Kati Wilde’s latest Dead Lands fantasy-romance, THE MIDSUMMER BRIDE. I didn’t read anything I didn’t like.

    • Oh, shoot. It looks like our notifications were somehow turned off. We forgot to add the widget this month. We’ll bring it back for future posts. Sorry we didn’t see this sooner.
