Worst affected were Baghdad and the central city of Baquba, which were hit by numerous blasts.
Violence during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which ended in early August, left more than 670 people dead - one of the highest tolls for years.
The rising level of casualties comes amid heightened tensions between Sunni and Shia Muslims.
Sunnis say they are being marginalised by Prime Minister Nouri Maliki's Shia-led government.
In Baquba, there were reports of four bombings, two of which were said to have targeted a Shia wedding.
Several blasts - car bombs and a roadside bomb - were reported in Baghdad, one of them inside a coffee shop. At least nine people were killed.
At least four people are reported to have died in a car bomb blast in the town of Balad, north of the capital. The blast happened as a judge drove past. He was among several others wounded, local police said.

Everyone has completely forgotten about Iraq in my opinion. The country is still in conflict and chaos.
Mission accomplished.
never seen that coming
