August 2026 Review and Release Recap

August 2026 Release and Review Recap

Wow this summer has been crazy! I went on two trips in August, both to see my son, a guitarist on tour with Devon Allman. I also continued spending a little more time doing bookish news graphics on my Instagram and Facebook. I kept up with my new release list and posted well over 250 books and audiobooks that released in August. I only reviewed 3 books, but I loved all three so much! Hopefully I will catch up on reviews this month. You can read my reviews here on the blog, or check out my mini reviews on Instagram and Facebook, I do a full carousel for each review. I did have one DNF for the month. Hearts Unchained by AG Starling is an F1 romance and I was so excited for it, but it turned out to be third person and I just couldn’t get into it. It may have been an amazing story, but I tried three times.
