Can you believe it’s already July??? Where has the year gone?
In addition to the books I read last month, I spent an insane amount of money on additional books. Most that I still haven’t read. SMH. That may be one of the main reasons I’m doing a no spend month and sticking to my ways to save money on books
Since I am in a No Spend Month, I pre-purchased most of the books that are on my list this month even if they were in presale and what I didn’t purchase, came from my personal stash.
All of the links below are from Amazon, which I find is easier for those who want to upload a book to Kindle or Audible.
But, if you want a book in your hand or want another way to read and listen to books, consider supporting small book stores here at Bookshop where you can buy books directly from your local bookstores or contribute to one.
Anyway, here is my list of books I’m reading this July/Summer.
July/Summer Reading List
Sex and Vanity: A Novel
This is a new one from Kevin Kwan, the author of Crazy Rich Asians. The title alone said summer read to me.
The Empire of Gold: A Novel (The Daevabad Trilogy Book 3)
You know I love my YA fantasy books! I started reading this trilogy earlier this year and the last book in the series has just been released. I can't wait to see how it all ends.
One to Watch: A Novel
I just love the premise of this: an influencer who ends up on a reality show? LOL. Throw in a little body positivity and romance and it seems like a perfect hammock read.
Song of Solomon
This is actually my favorite Toni Morrison book. I've always felt that her books need to be re-read from time to time because you always learn something new.
Memorial Drive: A Daughter's Memoir
I've been waiting for this book ALL YEAR!! I originally included it on a book list earlier this year, and I've been waiting impatiently ever since. I usually don't read that many memoirs, but I can't wait to get into this one.
What is on your summer reading list?

I’ve been off of Instagram for the summer but keep coming to your blog for book recs! I’ve read Get a Life, Chloe Brown, Such a Fun Age, and The Wedding Date all based off your last list and I just put 3 books on hold at the library from this list. Thank you!!
