Thanks Leane! Yeah it's a really cool way to track reading stats. :)
I will be missing this month as I will be travelling and not very much on Goodreads, but I'll be back in September.
Have a safe and wonderful trip Leticia!
Thanks, I'll still be around if you want to buddy read On Basilisk Station though. When do you want to start?
Anytime. I have the book. You name the time.

What did you think?
Hi everyone! I am so glad you are here. I hope you are all having a great month. Can you believe we are over halfway through August? It seems like we are speeding toward the end of the year (yikes!). I feel like I've had a good reading month, and maybe it's because I have been doing a lot of rereads. How's your reading month going, has it been what you wanted?

I've been reading larger books this month so I've been a little disappointed I have finished as many books but I'm happy I'm getting some chunkers out of the way.
Hi Leane, I see you finished Dune, what did you think of it? I really liked it.
Hi, it’s not been as good, but not bad. I’ve not long ago finished 4th of the month and on 5th and 6th,
Karen wrote: "Hi Leane, I see you finished Dune, what did you think of it? I really liked it."
I kind of read it on a dare but was surprised how much I enjoyed it and finished it pretty fast. I wish I had realized in the beginning there was a glossary in the back because that would have been very helpful when trying to understand the world.
Have you read any of the others in the series?

No, I have not read the others. I started Dune Messiah, but because it starts off so differently, that I am not sure what to think. I have read up to page 5.

This is the most I've read in one month in a long time! I enjoy checking in each day and seeing everyone's progress as well. Thank you for having me!

Yeah, I kind of want to know what happens but not enough to continue reading all the other books. I may just google it. lol

I do that sometimes and find I learn something new I didn't when I originally read it lol.
