Paper Bindings- August 2015 Recap

Overall I guess it was a good month. There were quite a few lower rated books on there but I am blaming it on cleaning out my e readers and all those freebie ebooks I've picked up over the years.  

Side note: I've almost read through all my ibooks! *celebratory dance* And I have finally downloaded the kindle and nook apps to my phone so I have a wider range of ebooks to choose from while I read a work. I feel technologically cool now.


Paper Bindings - August 2015 Recap

I'm in a YA mood I swear. I'm blaming the 70% on all those freebie ebooks I've picked up. I can't help it that they recommend other freebie ebooks of similar content, can I?
