Monthly Review: September.

Welcome to Turning Pages!

September has been a bit of a crazy month for me, if you've been keeping up. Not only am I trying to balance a job, school, working out, blogging and reading, but also some fun time in between!

I had my first day of classes just last week, and like three out of four, so that isn't too bad. I do have classes with a lot of people I know, or have had classes with before, so that's exciting! The online class that I was so nervous about, doesn't seem too hard, but overall I'm pretty happy with school.

I did go to a few fun bookish events this month from a book club meeting, to a book signing, and even The Maze Runner movie. While I didn't get as many reviews up as I hoped to this month, I think four is good enough considering everything else that's going on!

So here's what I've been doing this month...

Book Reviews:

The Kiss of Deception (The Remnant Chronicles, #1)Don't TouchRites of PassageKiss of Broken Glass


Gone (Gone, #1)

    1. Haha, it doesn't feel like it sometimes. Figuring out when to do what is hard work. Like finally getting around to answering comments and commenting back. Anyways, you should whenever you get the chance! She's amazing!
