July 2025 Review and Release Recap

July was a good reading month for me! I still have 4 audiobooks left from the month that I haven’t reviewed yet because I spent over 21 hours on the road this week, then I got back and read the almost 700 page Night’s Fall by Kristen Ashley like a fiend. It was so good! My review is written, I just need to make the graphics. So I reviewed 7 books (6 audio, 1 regular) in July. I also listed over 275 book and audiobook releases for the month, which you can find below.

• • Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry  | Audiobook Review  4 Stars
  • The Eight Heatbreaks of Hanukkah by Jean Meltzer  4.25 Stars
  • Denim & Diamonds by Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland | Audiobook Review  4.5 Stars
  • Penn by Sawyer Bennett | Audiobook Review  5 Stars (Note: I am her PA, and may be a little biased)
  • Chasing Shelter by Catherine Cowles | Audiobook review  4.75 Stars
  • Caught Up by Navessa Allen | Audiobook Review   3 Stars
  • Seven Year Itch by Amy Daws | Audiobook Review  4 Stars
