I finished reading Owl’s Outstanding Donuts by Robin Yardi, 5 ★. A delightful fun read. Here's my review.

1. Did you complete and/or get up to date in any series this month?
I completed 2 series this month:
The School for Good and Evil series by Soman Chainani
Finishing School series by Gail Carriger

2. Did you start any new series? If so, what were they? Will you continue?
I started the Cousin's O'Dwyer trilogy by Nora Roberts and I will definitely continue it.

3. Did you move forward in any series (that you didn’t complete or finish)? How many?
I moved forward in the Lucy Kincaid series (#4) by Allison Brennan.

4. Any standout or 5 star books read? Why did you love it/them?
I've enjoyed all the books in the School for Good and Evil series, so it's no surprise that I gave the last book 5 stars as well. I loved the characters. I also gave 5 stars to Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills. This YA book surprised me in the best way. The characters and situations brought back memories from high school.

I read some great books this month and am proud of myself for staying on track with my reading plan.
