July 2026 Holidays
Reasons to celebrate and ways to find joy in everyday living - here’s a list of all the fun holidays to bookmark for the month ahead!
Hello Joyful Readers!
I know I say this every month, but how on earth is it already July?! How are we already halfway through 2026?! It’s true what they say, the days are long but the years are short. The first half of the year flew by but they were filled with lots of fun moments and milestones in our house. As always, there’s tons of fun holidays to celebrate this month - hello America 250!
Bookish-wise I’m looking forward to celebrating Summer and enjoying beach reads before I go full tilt into SummerWeen mode. I’m hoping to see some great recommendations to continue my efforts of reading more diversely. Let me know if there’s a book you’ve loved recently that you’d recommend!

The Beauty of Blank Bookshelves
Looking around I have a renewed appreciation for blank shelves. I recently did a massive book unhaul and now have a few large shelves sitting empty and waiting for new stories to fill the space. There's something beautiful about blank shelves, the anticipation and wonder at the books that will soon stand in the currently open space.

July booksta post ideas:
One of my favorite things about celebrating all the fun and silly holidays is being able to inspire others to celebrate too! I realized the list I share every month is comprehensive and compact, and thought it would be fun to start sharing bookish ideas on what to post about on social media. Brainstorming done easy for y’all!
