April Reading
I’ve seen a few of these floating around and wanted to give it a try for myself. A few notes: I’ve linked everything except the books and movies/TV so hopefully they’re easy to access if you’re interested. I haven’t limited books, poetry, or short stories to educational or nonfiction content, but I only included educational/nonfiction non-reading media because a) I don’t think anyone’s interested in my full internet habits, and b) this list would be insanely long because I watch too much youtube. If the videos I listed were from an individual creator I included their name/channel name, but otherwise (a company or group channel [such as CrashCourse, SciShow, Watcher, etc. from this list]) I left it out. Enjoy!
