In September, I read 19 books, bringing my total books read for the year to 167. Of those, several of them were excellent reads.

A Song to Drown Rivers, by Ann Liang. I found this really engrossing. The culture was fascinating, and I loved the main character. I did not love the ending, but it made sense.

The Bookshop of Hidden Dreams, by Karen Hawkins. Like the rest of the Dove Pond books, this was a magical read. I love the setting, and I liked these characters, too.

The Break-Up Pact, by Emma Lord. This was such a fun read! I loved the setting, and the relationship of the characters. This is an excellent weekend or beach read.
