Hello Everyone!
I read 10 books and 4 of those were rereads. Overall, it was a pretty solid reading month with my rereads being the standout books. I didn’t get to read any fanfiction this month, but I’ll definitely be rectifying that in November.
So, here are some stats!
Number of pages read:
Number of print books: 7
Number of e-books: 3
Favourite quote of the month:
“[…] sometimes the hardest decisions a person can make most likely lead to the best outcomes.” – It Starts with Us, Colleen Hoover

I haven’t reread HP: The Order of the Phoenix since 2019, but it honestly feels longer since I didn’t remember much. Also, after reading so much Marauders era fanfic, this book hits different as does chapter: The Only One He Ever Feared.

I read this way back in 2017 and I can’t believe I survived this 5 long years without answers. The Lost Metal releases in November and I AM SO HYPED!
