I can't believe how quickly summer is winding down! Just two weeks until school starts. I've got a lot of reading to cram into those two weeks. I have another huge stack of library books to read my way through. Ah, I love summer!

Yup, there's that stack of library books. Hopefully, Bout of Books will help me make the stack smaller!

Ah, I loved Keeping the Moon! A very well-written and engrossing contemporary. I've found that it's hard to go wrong with Sarah Dessen! :)

    My name is Julie, and I own a lot of books. As in, they are stacked on the floor because I've run out of room on the shelves. And those shelves? There are so many books on them that they smile -- not sag; smile. This blog will cover book reviews and all manner of other bookish things.
