 Hey guys, it's Julia, and welcome back to my channel, and for today's video I'm going to be doing my August TBR. Booktubeathon is getting carried into August, so including all those books as well, I'll have my Booktubeathon TBR linked up on the screen, but I have about five, six-ish books here, five books that I hope to get to this month, aside from Booktubeathon, or during Booktubeathon if I change my TBR. Not that bad, and this is edited by Roxane Gay. This is all about rape culture. Roxane Gay is someone that I really love as an author, so I'm excited to read more of her work. This just came out of the other last month, I believe, so I hope this one is really insightful, which I'm sure it will be, and there's some other authors in it as well who wrote essays, so I'm looking forward to giving this one a read and seeing how they talk about this subject matter. Next I have The Loneliest Girl in the Universe, and this is by Lauren Janes. This came out recently as well. I think all of these are new releases, or upcoming releases, but this is like a sci-fi romance thing? I don't know exactly, but I remember I was at the HTC frenzy event, and they talked about this, and this was one of the ones that I starred on my little paper because I was really interested in it. One of two astronauts is no stranger to life and space, but she never knew how isolating the universe could be until her parents tried to die, left her alone on the infinity of spaceships speeding away from Earth. Sounds interesting. I hope it's good. I have a lot of faith in that one for some reason. Monday's Not Coming by Tiffany D Jackson. This is a book about a girl who goes missing, and then it's about the other girl trying to find her, or nobody cares that she's missing, something like that. And yes, this was an Indigo staff pick too. It was on sale, so I got it, because it's regularly like $23, so save money when you can. Oh, Lori Hals Anderson blurb this as well, exciting, exciting. Next here I have notes from my captivity. This is by Kathy Parks. So this book is Girl Meets Boy and the Family Holding Her Hostage. Cares about three things, getting into a great college, becoming a journalist, like her idol, and making her late father proud of her. But when it's offered the second chance to write an article that could go into her dream school and debunk her foolish, optimistic stepfather's claim that a legendary family of hermits is living in the Siberian wilderness, there's no question that she's going to fly across the world. After all, it was the trip of a lifetime, right? And when disaster strikes, nothing, not the flutterous guide or her steps that's obsessively detailed preparations can protect her from the sheer force of nature. Now she's being held by the family she was convinced didn't exist, and her best hope for escape is to act like she cares about refining them, even if that means wooing the youngest son. And it sounds so good. Like, this is another one that was at that event, at the H.C. Frenzy event, and I started all my paper like ten times and I was like, I need this book. So it came out. I pre-ordered it and stuff, and it came in the mail, and yes, so I'm super excited about this one. At least here we have an ARC, and that is my ARC for Broken Things. This is by Lauren Oliver. This one is like, their town called the Malire, the world called the monster, but only they can uncover the truth. And it's like a thriller that's coming out in November, I believe. And this one I'm just looking forward to reading. I liked Lauren Oliver's before I fall. I've talked about this book quite a bit on my channel, like saying that I wanted to read it. So I should read it. I got this book on the ARC, so like, I gotta read this. And there you guys have it. Those are the books that are on my August TBR. I know I made like a summer TBR, but then like, I kind of wanted to make a TBR for August because these are all, I have this little corner now at the top of my bookshelf where I put books that like I want to read super soon. So those are there. So I thought I'd share them with you guys anyways. But I hope you enjoyed it. Let me know what you plan to read in August. And yeah, I'll see you guys super soon with a new video. Bye!
