September Reads

Ahhh, September.  I always think of September as a time of new beginnings. Perhaps this is because September always marked the beginning of the school year. As a youth librarian in a public library, we often have reduced or no programming in August, treating September as the start of a programming year.  Going with this train of thought, September was a slow beginning for me.  I only read 37 books. 

As usual, the titles in bold are the ones I rated with five stars on my Goodreads.com account.
