July Wrap Up!!!

Hi Reader Friends,

Welcome to all my new followers and a big thank you to everyone for your continuous support. Hope you’re all keeping well.

July has been a pretty good month. It started off very productive and I managed to get a good amount of reading done, however, towards the end of the month things slowed down as I recover from surgery at home my reading has taken a bit of a hit. I started a few books but couldn’t quite finish them in time for this months wrap up. But hopefully I’ll be back on track very soon.

Sunday 19th July 2020

My favourite quote from INK by Alice Broadway was:

“We’re all a bit bad. We all have things in our lives that bring us shame and regret. Things that have hurt our souls or hurt the people we love. But ‘re all a bit good too. i reckon we’re mostly good actually. And life is about trying to learn the balance, plot our place on the continuum… We’re not just made up of good and bad: we’re everything else too.”
