Books I read in July!

Not as much as I would have hoped for but July was a busy month! Hopefully August will bring me more than just two books!

📖Give Them Lala

⭐️Overall rating: 10/10

📖Counting the Cost

⭐️Overall rating: 5/10

I did really love how these books were read by the authors themselves! I just started getting into audiobooks and I really like how I am able to do things around the house, work, etc. all while listing to a book!

2024/8/1 Edited to

... Read moreIn July, I explored the world of audiobooks, including renowned titles like 'JULY' by Lala Kent and 'Counting the Cost' by Jill Duggar. Audiobooks have become increasingly popular as they allow multitasking while enjoying literature. Not only do they provide insights from the authors themselves, but they also cater to those with a packed schedule. If you're considering venturing into audiobooks, platforms like Audible or Libby might be worth checking out. Setting a reading goal can also help motivate you through the year. With 13 out of 50 books read so far in 2024, I'm eager to dive into more titles. Exploring reader feedback and reviews enhances the experience. Whether it's a memoir or a novel, audiobooks can be a delightful addition to your reading list!
