Summer Blogging Break!

Hình ảnh
Image via WeHeartIt Over the past few years I've blogged through summer, but this year, I've decided to take a break. It feels like things are winding down a little in the book blogging world, you know? I think this happens every year during the summer months; visitors to the blog dwindle, as do comments, reader interaction and all the rest, so... I'm taking a break.

Check out my Goodreads Profile to keep up to date with what I'm reading this summer! *****
