August is a special month when it comes to planning my reading list because August means it’s time for ARC August! ARC August is dedicated to tackling that stack of ARCs (Advance Readers Copy) that you have accumulating on your TBR and it was created by the lovely ladies over at Read. Sleep. Repeat! Click here to see their original 6th Annual ARC August blog post! Be sure to sign up via the sign up form at the bottom of their original post!
ARC August takes place throughout the entire month from August 1st – August 31st 2018! Here is a Twitter thread containing FAQ regarding ARC August.
Before I begin telling you about my ARC August TBR, we have to find out…Did I meet my July 2018 TBR goals?
Did I meet my July TBR Goals?
Monday’s Not Coming by Tiffany D. Jackson
Goodnight Punpun Vol.3 by Inio Asano
Tokyo Ghoul Vol.6 by Sui Ishida
Echoes by Alice Reeds
City Of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab
That’s Not What Happened by Kody Keplinger
Oh gosh…I failed. I meant to read these titles, I really did…but I got side-tracked and read other things instead! The good news is, two of these titles are ARCs, so I can just move them over to this month’s TBR! The other two I didn’t get to are graphic novels…so maybe I can squeeze them in as well! Time will tell!
August TBR Goals + ARC AUGUST!
Now it’s time to set up some more goals for the month of August, and believe me, there are a lot of ARCs I’d like to get to this month! Both backlisted ARCs as well as upcoming titles! Without further ado, here are the ARCs that I’d like to get to this month!
Upcoming Titles
City Of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab
That’s Not What Happened by Kody Keplinger
Rabbit & Robot by Andrew Smith
Sadie by Courtney Summers

I did my first readathon this past weekend and I loved it. I have been on the hunt for more ever since so I am thrilled to see this one here. I must stock up on tea….
