*Platypire Read-A-Thon* September

September is here which means it's time for me to update my Platypire Read-A-Thon list. I'm still working on reducing my currently reading shelf (I managed to knock six books off last month only adding four new ones, it's progress) and trying to get caught up on reviews. I'm not sure I will get caught up on reviews this month though, because Joood - Hooligan of Platypire Reviews and I have put Review or Regret on hold for the month due to the devastation of Hurricane Harvey. I'm not affected by it, but Joood is from Houston, so she is very much (although last I knew her apartment didn't flood so yay for that!) But that means that I don't have that motivation to write extra reviews each week to try to force her to since Justin Bieber. But at the same time, writing a buttload of a reviews in any given week also won't be mean right now, because she is not obligated to keep up with me. So I don't know what's going to happen. 

Anyway, without further ado, here is my updated list.

I have only added twelve new books to my list this month, and six of them are sneak peeks, which don't really count as full books (except for when I need to brag about how many books I read in a given month and then they totally count as full books). We are taking a vacation this month, so I am hoping to get thirteen full books read, plus the four or five sneak peeks I need for Sunday, but we shall see how successful I am at that.

How many books do you think I'll get read in September? - Katie
