Did you find something interesting to read?<\/p>\n<p>I hope you have better luck than I did &#8211; this month was a no-go for me. Everything I picked up was too &#8220;science-y&#8221; for me and yes, I know that was the whole point of this month&#8217;s challenge! I don&#8217;t think it was necessarily the fault of the books or that they had too much science in them, I think it&#8217;s a case of just not finding anything appealing. I think most readers go through reading slumps, when you can&#8217;t find the right book. Sometimes other things in your life take priority and you don&#8217;t have much time to read. Or, you just finished something fantastic and you&#8217;re spoiled.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, I didn&#8217;t give up on reading altogether. I kept reading books, they just weren&#8217;t &#8220;science-y&#8221;! I will, however, admit to having watched a lot of <em>Big Bang Theory<\/em> re-runs &#8211; does that count?<\/p>\n<p>As I always say, there are no Library Police. I may have missed this month, but I&#8217;m going to pick up again starting tomorrow with the next challenge!<\/p>\n<p>OK, now it&#8217;s your turn &#8211; what did you read for September?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello Fellow Challengers!
