I managed to read 18 books this month, and have started reading all of the horror/thriller books that I planned out a few months ago. Let’s hope I don’t get burned out before the end of the month. I had one five-star rated book and then the majority in the 4 to 4.75 star category. Lots of good books this month!

Without further ado, here are my top four books of the month and a list of the others that I read, grouped by rating.
