April is here! It means I get to celebrate another pandemic birthday and eat Easter chocolate. I also hope to read more books than I did in March because I really didn't have the energy to focus much at all this past month.
Before sharing what I hope to read this month I have to recap March first.
The books that were on my list are:
Here is what I managed to read in March:
Plus I had some ebooks on my list:
The Initial Insult by Mindy McGinnis (goodreads)
A Better Bad Idea by Laurie Devore (goodreads)
Mouthful of Forevers by Clementine Von Radics (goodreads)
It was a bad reading month all around. I only managed to read three books. I did however enjoy all three of them immensely in different ways.
My #PopCultureResolution book for March was When No One Is Watching by Alyssa Cole. The movie was The Stepfather. I reviewed the movie if you are interested in checking that out. I, obviously, did not get to the book, so I'll attempt to double up this month.
Here is what I hope to read in April:
Marriage For One by Ella Maise (goodreads)
When No One Is Watching by Alyssa Cole (goodreads)
The Duke and I by Julia Quinn (goodreads)
I also have some ebooks I am hoping to get to:
Written in The Stars by Alexandra Bellefleur (goodreads)
Kate In Waiting by Becky Albertalli (goodreads)
The Other Mrs Miller by Allison M Dickson (goodreads)
My #PopCultureResolution picks for this month are The Other Mrs Miller by Allison M Dickson and Frankenstein. Very intrigued to finally see Frankenstein after hearing about it during the incredible Bela and Boris season of You Must Remember This.
Next up is an update on my two reading challenges:
April's pick for my '12 friends, 12 books' reading challenge is Marriage For One. I am excited to get to read this one because it's come highly recommended by both the person who recommended it and others. I am also reading Written In The Stars this month (I am almost done in fact) so I can get ahead on my other challenges (and it came in early at the library).
The book for March, Mouthful of Forevers, ended up being one I absolutely loved. The poetry was beautiful and has made me curious enough to check out more.
