After the absolutely scorching summer we&#8217;ve had here, I was looking forward to some cooler temps. No such luck, but so far October seems to be down in the 70s at least. School&#8217;s going well for the kids, though our newest dog, Derpdog, who was adopted during the pandemic, is still very confused why they keep leaving the house and aren&#8217;t home to play with him all day. I&#8217;ve been giving him lots of extra cuddles (while reading of course), which is good because otherwise my reading time has decreased. We&#8217;re also pretty much back up to the usual amount of after school kid activities, which means a lot more running around and general exhaustion (for me, not the kids, who seem to have boundless energy!).<\/p>\n<p>As far as challenges, I&#8217;ve been working on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.llamareadsbooks.com\/blog\/index.php\/reading-challenges\/cannonballread-13-bingo\/\">Cannonball Bingo<\/a>. For Goodreads, at the start of the month I was at 214 books out of my goal of 250 books, currently 26 books ahead of schedule. The new fall bingo is starting up this month as well!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">BOOKS READ IN SEPTEMBER<\/h4>\n<hr \/>\n<div id=\"flex-covers\">\n<ul>\n<li><a
