To say July was an “off” month for me would be putting it mildly. However, one of the positive things to come out of the past thirty-one days was my desire to restart what I began with this blog: to share my love of reading.
My favorite reading months are almost here (31 Books of Halloween for September and October), so I thought I would go the nonfiction route for this month, featuring some lighter memoir/autobiography reading…
Chelsea Handler is one of those people you either love or loathe. She is definitely not for everyone, but there’s something about her snark and don’t give a shit attitude that I love.
Since I will be attending my first live music concert in over twenty years this month, featuring two favorites (Mudvayne and Megadeth), I thought it would be appropriate to read Megadeth founder Dave Mustaine’s memoir. I started this a couple of days ago and it’s pretty entertaining so far (and yes, I’ve always believed Dave was screwed over by Metallica, IYKYK).
In keeping in line with metal legends, I recently ordered a copy of Lemmy Kilmister’s autobiography, White Line Fever. The founder, lead vocalist, and bass player for Motorhead was one of my first introductions to heavy metal in the early 1980’s, and for some reason has always been one of my favorite old-school frontmen. It looks like my order is on track to arrive soon so I can include this title on my monthly checklist.
Do you have any reading goals for this month? Drop me a line and let’s talk books!
I’m looking forward to moving ahead again with my reviews. Until next time, stay safe and Happy Reading!
