How is it already July
Anyway, we’ve reached the halfway point of 2019! It’s time to pause and take a look at how it’s been so far and what we expect to achieve before it ends. Not in life, though, no — I’m only talking about books.

None! I’ve been avoiding series for a while now, I kind of grew tired of them after several disappointments.
3. New Release You Haven’t Read Yet, But Want To?
