August 2021 Wrap Up

Hello friends! We have made it to the end of August, which hopefully means that cooler weather is coming! I’m really hoping for that. Fall weather is honestly my jam. I just want to wear cozy sweaters and hoodies! Anyway, this means that it’s time for my August 2021 Wrap Up! For the month of August, I read a total of 27 books. A little lower than my usual monthly total, but I had a lot going on.

Reading Challenges

Unfortunately, I have not finished any of the prompts for any reading challenges this month. So, September will have to be a catch up month for me! Which will hopefully be fine, with all of the books that are coming out in September. There are so many books coming out in September!

Other August Favorites

Let’s see, I watched the first episode of What If? on Disney+ this month, hoping to catch up this week! I also re-watched all of the Twilight movies for nostalgia’s sake. It was such a wild ride. I also went to see The Suicide Squad in theaters with a friend, which was an interesting experience. I’ve also started watching New Girl again, as well as started watching Gilmore Girls. Oh and I finished Maniac and The Witcher. So much TV watching! That’s what happens when you no longer have cable and live by yourself.
