ARC August and Beat the Heat Progress Post

Wow, can anyone else not believe that we are almost finished August already?! I’m shocked! I tried to get a lot of reading done this past week but I’ve been sick/recovering from being sick/am sick, I’m not really sure haha. A couple of weeks ago I went to the doctor because I’ve been feeling exhausted and crappy for months now really and it turns out that I am extremely low in iron and B12, which basically accounts for all of my sickish feelings. I’m on the mend with the B12 but iron will take a few more weeks to start working so I am still lethargic and have headaches frequently but at least I know it will be coming to an end soon 🙂 Woo! So anyways, I didn’t get a lot of reading done because I spent a large part of the week sleeping when I wasn’t working haha but I did manage to get some done…

ARC August!

Feral  The Jewel
I finished two ARCs this week: Feral and The Jewel. The Feral was ok(ish), my review will be posting tomorrow and surprisingly I really liked The Jewel. I haven’t read any of the books that it was compared to so to me it was a unique storyline but the romance was weird. That review will be coming up in the next week as well. I am so excited because I only have one more ARC to read to complete my goal of 6 🙂 I should be reading at least two though by the end of August, three if I’m lucky!!

Open Road Summer
In addition to The Jewel and Feral, I am currently reading Open Road Summer… and I’m about 50% finished. I really like it so far, but I’m not completely in LOVE with it like I thought I would be, we will see though… should definitely be finished that one tomorrow. My goal is 10 and so far I’ve finished 4 1/2 books so this might be another lofty goal I’ve set for myself haha.

How are you doing on your goals so far?
