The end is here (and June reads)

Another Summer Reading Program is in the books!  This year was my 10th SRP.  It was quite a summer, with some successes (Minecraft for tweens, Constellation T-Shirts) and some that were not (Minecraft for teens, no registrations for Sun Salutations Yoga). I was obviously busy enough that I didn't get around to posting my June books, and that the summer seem to go fairly quickly.  I still can't believe it is already August! 

Even though this was a busy summer, I still managed to read 101 books in June.  Several titles I rated five stars on Goodreads.  Those are in bold.
