July has been one of those months that has been slow but also incredibly quick. I do not know how to explain it! In July I went to the cinema, shopping and had a lot of reading days. Here is what happened in July!

July has been quite a busy month for me. I started out the month going to the cinema on my own for the first time. I am beyond proud of myself for doing that because even though it might not seem like a big thing, it is something that I would not have done 6 months ago. So, I am very proud of myself. I saw Black Widow which was excellent!
The sunny weather this month and how my days off work lined up meant I had a lot of time to spend in the garden reading in the sunshine. This is one of my favourites things to do so being able to do that for a few days straight was just excellent!
I spent some days with friends, chatting, reading and just having a wonderful time. I love all my friends a lot so getting to spend more time with them again has been a lot of fun! Also, I had some shopping days this month. One of them was with my sister, Katie! She has recently moved into a Uni house so it was so lovely to go and see her and eat pizza!
Finally, this month I decided to give BookTok a try and I am loving it! The app is super addictive and just a whole lot of fun. So, if you have the app be sure to give me a follow, @loisreadsbooks!
Bring on August!
That is it, July is over. I cannot wait to see what August holds. What has July been like for you and what have you read? Let me know in the comments below!
