August Wrap Up - N.E.W.Ts Readathon

August has been my best reading month so far! I've been on school holidays so I've had a lot more time to read so I think that helped, along with taking part in the N.E.W.Ts Magical Readathon. 

For the N.E.W.Ts I was aiming for 7 books to achieve my career as a Magizoologist and I managed to reach that along with 4 books for extra credit.

  2. Unfortunately, I haven't read any of these, but on the good side, there's to many books to look and add on my TBR.
