I cannot believe April is already over. It definitely flew by on my end. I am still adjusting to my new role so I am not 100 percent back to blogging as much as I wish I was.
Leading in to the summer I am hoping to read more books and am looking forward to peppering in more light, fun reads.
Before I talk about what May will bring for me reading wise I have to recap April.
The books that were on my list are:
Here is what I managed to read in March:
Heartstopper: Volume 1 by Alice Oseman (goodreads)
Fresh by Margot Wood (goodreads)
The Club by Ellery Lloyd (goodreads)
A Night to Die For by Lisa Schroeder (goodreads)
I managed to read four books this month. I am going to call that a win because my work/life balance has not been great recently.
My #PopCultureResolution book for March was Saga: Volume One by Brian K. Vaughan, Fiona Staples, which I managed to read and will review soon. The movie was A Star is Born and that has already been reviewed.
Here is what I hope to read in May:
Anatomy by Dana Schwartz (goodreads)
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston (goodreads)
I also have some ebooks that I am hoping to get to:
Birds of California by Katie Cotugno (goodreads)
Groupies by Sarah Priscus (goodreads)
How to Fake it in Hollywood by Ava Wilder (goodreads)
My #PopCultureResolution picks for this month are Heartstopper by Alice Oseman. I had switched it and Monstress in my reading list because my library hold of Heartstopper took a bit to come in. I have already read it and it is amazing! My review is up if you want to read it. My movie is Funny Girl. I am excited to watch it soon!
Next up is an update on my two reading challenges:
