After a slower June, I really hoped that my reading picked up in July – and it did just a little. The month started off really well, but then we went into another lockdown. And honestly, all I wanted to do was rest and not do anything. So I binge watch tv shows and just chilled.

In saying all this I did read, there was a mix of books this month like always, but it was mostly romance as most of this year has gone. I read some new-to-me authors and books in series I’ve been reading. Anyway, let’s get into it. These are the books that I read this July, as always these are in no order.

With You Forever (Bergman Brothers #4) by Chloe Liese: As soon as I received my e-arc of this I had to read it. And I was not disappointed, it’s simply fantastic. This is by far becoming to be one of my favourite romance series ever | 4.5 Stars 

Emerald Lakes #1-#3 by Britt Andrews: This series kept on popping up on my TikTok so I just had to give it a go. I’ve been looking forward to some more paranormal/fantasy romances. While I didn’t love this as much as I thought I would, I still enjoyed it a lot. I haven’t read the fourth book yet as I’m waiting for the fifth one to come out before I finish it off. I’ve heard it finishes on a big cliffhanger and I’m not ready for that. Series so far 3.5 Stars 

Ice Planet Barbarians #3.5-7 by Ruby Dixon: I read the first few books of this series last year before I took a little break from the world of blue aliens. But with it all over TikTok, I knew I needed to get on it. These are the best books out there, but they are so much fun to read. 

Academy of Stardom #1-#4 by Bea Paige: This is another one that I have seen pop up all over my socials. I use to and still do love watching dance movies, so that appealed to me right away. It’s fun, addicting and I couldn’t put them down. While they aren’t the best-written books out there, I just had a blast reading them. 

And there we go, those are the books that I read in July. I’m hoping that August is going to be a better reading both as well so hopefully no lockdowns. Let’s see. What did you read in July? Have you read any of these books
