Alright everyone, did you fill out your Bookish Bingo Cards? Share your cards, and link up your posts below!
Recap of the rules:
Each month we will upload a new bingo card. You download the bingo card and mark off squares as you read books each month. At the end of the month, we will post our own bingo cards. Link up your post or post your own bingo card in the comments.
The monthly winner will be the person with the most marked squares. None of that across, diagonal, up and down, corners stuff. Just the number of squares. Be sure to include the books you’ve read for each of the squares. Only books read during the current month count. You may use the same book to fill multiple squares. We’ll announce the winner the following month to allow everyone time to link up their posts.
And to encourage more people than Julie and I to participate, we are going to have a quarterly raffle!

Hi Kristine! Shelf Love is our challenge – to read the books we have already purchased. So any book already on your shelves from before 2016 counts 🙂
Got it! Sadly, I don’t think I had any of those in July.

I think to complete my card I would have needed to pick specific books. July was a busy month, so that didn’t happen. Can’t wait for the August Card. Good job everybody!

Kudos to you both, ladies, for being such effective reading bees 🙂 Next to you, I feel very much like a snail… They sound quite interesting too, your books. Keep up the good work! 🙂

Great job, Freda!
Congrats to you both! I wasn’t as with it this month, trying to finish up specific books that wouldn’t work. Now, though, I am free to pick whatever I’d like!
That is one of the benefits of being the one who creates the bingo topics, Charlie! But Julie tossed in some whoppers for August!
