September was such a great reading month for me, both number-of-books-wise and reading-events-wise. Despite the heavy workload in the firm, I was able to squeeze in some reading time so yay! I read five books, which I know may be too few to some, but it’s actually a huge feat for me! Lately, my rate has gotten down to 2-3books/month because of work (and Netflix!), so yes, I’m celebrating my five for September! 🙂
Like I said, I only finished five books but I felt like I’ve accomplished way more than five. I guess it’s because by reading Always and Forever, Lara Jean, I was able to finish the To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before “trilogy”; and by reading A Duke by Default, I’m now updated with the Reluctant Royals series by Alysa Cole (next book to come out in 2019!); and by reading WILDCARD, I’ve finished the awesome Warcross duology by the great Marie Lu. 😉
Man, feeling so damn proud of myself just typing all that! Haha!
I don’t usually post book hauls because I don’t normally buy books in bulk. Often I go to a bookstore and buy a couple and that’s it. But in the month of September, I attended the 2018 International Manila Book Fair and I had a blast! National Bookstore also hosted a Book Binge Bazaar where I was able to buy books real cheaper than their original prices.
I told you, I had a blast. So I bought 16 titles and went home with my wallet empty and my full. 😉 In the latter part of the month, I bought a couple more (Percy Jackson books 4 and 5!). I think I have to start imposing a ban on myself now. 😉
So that’s my September. Quite more eventful reading and books-wise than the other months. I can’t wait for the rest of 2018 to come!
How was your September? How many books did you read? Any favorites among them? 🙂
I just finished reading the Rose Society and IT IS SOOO GOOD. Have you read the Young Elite series? Anyways, I am so glad to hear that you had a great time at the Manila Book Fair 🙂

[…] My last binge was on September – when I attended the 2018 Manila International Book Fair, and where I brought home a cartful of books. If you’re curious about the 16 ones I got, you can read my *happy* post here: https://readingafterten.wordpress.com/2018/10/03/september-wrap-up/ […]
