July in One Word 
HOT

During the month of July we had so many super hot days in Austria and over the last week we almost hit 40° Celsius on some days. The only things you could do where either sweat and read or sit outside (preferably either by a river or at the pool) and read. We had an amazing summer and I am usually one for warmer weather but almost 40° are too hot - even for me.

3 Things that Happened in July

• Me and three other lovely book bloggers started reading Jane Austen's Mansfield Park together and I really enjoyed this whole new experience of buddy reading a book. 
• I went to see Monsters University with a good friend and as always I loved the Pixar film - soooo much!
• I spent some hours at my local bookstore browsing the shelves and just enoying my holidays.

Book I Read this Month

• Marian Keyes - The Mystery of Mercy Close
• Ally Carter - Heist Society
• Carole Matthews - Sunshine, with a chance of snow
• Lindsey Kelk - I heart New York 
• Cassandra Clare - City of Bones 
• Caroline B Cooney - The Face on the Milk Carton 
• Jane Austen - Mansfield Park

  a TV series I liked this month

After I realized that I wasn't able to follow the new episodes of How I Met Your Mother I started watching it again from the start andright now I am in the middle of marathoning the fourth season.

 

Things I'm Looking Forward to in August

• My trip to London with my mum at the beginning of the month. I adore this city and cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to going there again.
• The Book Blogger Picnic me and my four best book blogging friends are organizing on Saturday the 24th of August at the Vondelpark in Amsterdam. For more information click here.
• Those random summer afternoons I will have time to meet my friends in the last three weeks of August. I am working like crazy tutoring high schoolers in English and preparing them to pass an important exam at the beginning of September. So I won't have a lot of time but those free hours I will cherish.
