Crazy weather. <br /><br />I'll be joining RIP too; I'm only a week late. It's one of the few (and this year, only) challenges I still participate in.

I am so far behind on my reviews right now that it may be weeks still before I do my Aug summary!<br /><br />I am happy to see summer go this year - it's been a rough one and fall is my favorite season anyway. Can't wait for the temps here to drop below 90!<br /><br />The RIP X Challenge sounds like fun - I may join! I usually read spooky, creepy stuff in October anyway, so it fits my habits perfectly (as you said, no pressure!).<br /><br />Enjoy September!<br /><br />Sue<br /><br /><a href="http://bookbybook.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Book By Book</a>Sue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-527113205930302342015-09-01T08:04:41.919-04:002015-09-01T08:04:41.919-04:00When I was laid off for a whole year, I thought I&...When I was laid off for a whole year, I thought I'd have more reading time. It didn't work out that way. Now, I'm back to work and seem to be reading the same amount as when I wasn't working.<br /><br />It sounds like you still read a lot in August and have good reading planned for September!Yvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13261873308731564886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-30659328150479808742015-08-31T21:31:48.312-04:002015-08-31T21:31:48.312-04:00I spend more time at the beach in Sept. and Oct as...I spend more time at the beach in Sept. and Oct as well.

Something about the idea of having a lot of "free" time makes the time immediately filled with something other than reading.Athirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03366654538383603004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-50293372757530836082015-08-31T20:15:32.663-04:002015-08-31T20:15:32.663-04:00A RIP challenge sounds scary to me!A RIP challenge sounds scary to me!Brian's Home Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08809631273441407139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-52466430549006982302015-08-31T16:49:33.808-04:002015-08-31T16:49:33.808-04:00Reading 7 books, while in August, shows me you had...Reading 7 books, while in August, shows me you had a good month doing other things.
