There goes... September!


Reading
I finished 5 books in September. I am satisfied though I had expected to finish more as I am having holiday. But I read two 500+ pages books so it is still a lot of reading. I loved The Passage by Justin Cronin the most and read three very nice review books.


Challenges
I am 5 books ahead with my Goodreads Challenge. I am pretty safe there. I did not read any books for other challenges so there is still something to work on there.


Family
My second nephew was born on the last Sunday of September. I saw him yesterday and he is really small and cute. I now have two cute nephews to spoil. We had two big birthdays in the family too and I spend a weekend with my mum visiting various activities in my home town.

Holiday
We are having our summer holiday at this moment. I know it is late in the season and autumn is upon us but with all the parties happening it was better to go a bit later. We went to the Canary Island for 2 weeks and I spend all my time reading beside a pool. It was really great. Now we still got a week left to do some fun stuff and obligatory household things like gardening.

October
DEWEY-READ-A-THON. Yes it is upon us again. You can follow the count down and sign up on http://www.24hourreadathon.com. I have been awfully slow with my reading but I am going to participate in this one for sure and already am plotting on my books. I am going to try and join #ReadSherlock! I am still pondering how to fit it in but with a whole week off I can manage something. Meanwhile I am loving all the Halloween madness that is going on on my social media feeds already. We do not really celebrate it here though it is gaining some ground but I love the creepy fun.

The passage is great!
So bad you didn't come here on holidays, but the Canary Islands are great, haha.
Congratulations on your nephew, I liked the sencente "now I have two cute nephews to spoil" lol.
And I'm also participating in the Readathon, I'm so excited already!!!
