I know, right? I have the 100-reviews badge. Thanks for pointing these out--I don't think I would have noticed that I have a new one.
Yeah, I've gotten a couple like that, Elizabeth. Luckily, it's not often. But I figured (hoped) they'd be doing their editing afterwards.
Very nice reviews, Lara and Danielle. Both thoughtful and full of lots of feedback.

Good luck on your requests, Megan. I'm "curious" to know whether or not you'll get approved. :)
Really good review, Nikk.
Another book done this month. I liked this one much more than I expected to. What a nice surprise.
Second Helpings at the Serve You Right Cafe
You still did great, Sassafrass. And those are some great books (that I added to my TBR)!
This wasn't even on my schedule for the month, but the audiobook became available from the library, so I listened to it right away. Very good.
Wicked Intentions

Good for you, Madeline!

If you post one review on there before August 12, you will get this beautiful badge- I already got it today without knowing."Yeah, I saw that. I'm 18% into my first book of the month, so I'll get that done in another couple of days and will be sure to post my review.

Hope you're feeling better soon, Elizabeth. It sounds like you're making progress with your diagnosis and treatment, even if you're not completely healed yet.
Great job, everyone! On to August...
Well, I didn't do very well this month--feeding my addiction rather than overcoming it. Good news - I completed 4 reviews!
Bad news - I added 11 more books. Sheesh.

I always give a rating and a review, even if it's only 1 or 2 stars. My review says it all, like or dislike. I don't think I've ever left a book unfinished. Some kind of compulsion, I guess, to finish whatever I've started. Even if I have to put it down and pick it up again at another time.
Nice job, Lara!
