▪︎April Wrap Up▪︎

I am very happy with how my reading went this month.

I enjoyed everything I read and I look forward to continuing on with the series I am working on.

I did stray way off of my tbr but that is not unusual.

I hope you all had a fantastic reading month!

•

Happy Indie Bookstore Day!

April 2020 Wrap-up

I read 8 books in April. I had one bookclub read and began a massive series. One book was a reread. 

I think I had a fair bit of short reading days, so I did not read as much as I would have liked.

Three of the books were from the library and I owned the others.

April Reads:

The Honey-Don’t List (bookclub pick) by Christina Lauren [★★★★☆]

Riot Baby by Tochi Onyebuchi [★★★★★]

Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng [★★★★★]

Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik [★★★★☆]

The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo [★★★★☆]

Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo [★★★★☆]

The Conference of the Birds (Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children #5) by Ransom Riggs [★★★★★]

City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments #1)(reread) by Cassandra Clare [★★★★☆]

Books in bold are the ones I own(ed)

Little Fires Everywhere was my favorite book of the month.

I wanted to read some library books, so I tried to alternate back and forth between them and books I owned. I had chosen 8 books in advance to read for the month and I read five of them, but when I got to the last three, I just wasn’t currently interested in them.

The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up went towards my 2020 Goal for the TBRBuster challenge made by @bookbandit of reading one nonfiction book a month I’ve owned a year or longer.

Because of Winn-Dixie went towards one of my overall 2020 goals of reading at least 10 books that I’ve owned for a year or longer. 

Overall Goals Check-in:

Read 30 minutes a day [121/366]

Read 100 books [42/100]

Read 10 books that have been on my shelves for more than a year [5/10]

Become more active in the booklr community (not this month)

Read a book that is 1,000 pages or more

Complete one series I’ve already started (A Series of Unfortunate Events, The African Trilogy, Heroes of Olympus, Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children)

Write in my journal every day, even if it is only a sentence [121/366]

TBRBuster Check-in:

all books have to be owned for a year or longer at the time of reading

Read one nonfiction book a month, these do not count towards yearly goal [4/12]

Read one book I own by J. R. R. Tolkien

Read one book that is 800+ pages

Read one book that is more than a 100 years old

Read one book that was written in or before the 16th Century

I still have 20 library books to read. I reread City of Bones this month because I own the entire Mortal Instruments series and I wanted to give them a chance because I heard the overall Shadowhunter Chronicles was great. I read it a long time ago and didn’t care for it very much and never moved forward. I liked it a little more this time and look forward to the rest of the series. I am reading the overall series in publication order, so I will read The Mortal Instruments from my own physical collection and read the rest on Scribd.

*My check-in info is as of 4/30 so it only contains things for April

Looks like audiobooks and romance got me through the month and I only strayed from my TBR a tiny bit. • How did your reading go? What is your most favorite and least favorite book of the month? • I’m so glad Kingdom of the Wicked was chosen as the book club pick for this month. I love Kerri Maniscalco’s writing as she has a way of pulling me into the stories she creates. • #aprilwrapup #wrapup #whatiread #2021 #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookworm #bookish #read #books #audiobooks #bookshelf #shelfie #tbrshelf #funkopop #doctorwho #bujo #bulletjournal #igreads https://www.instagram.com/p/COS4tcmr8lI/?igshid=w2vh1fna0u2l

April 2020 WrapUp 5 books completed during the month of April. It was kind of a slumpy month but I loved a majority of what I read. 📚 I’m hoping May will go a lot smoother. I have a lot of books and readathons chosen that I’m very excited about. I’m hoping to knock two books off of my 20 in 2020. 📚 How many did you read in April? Which one was your favorite? How many books to do you to read in May? 📚 Happy Reading everyone💙 📚 #aprilwrapup #wrapup #2020 #april #books #bookshelf #shelfie #bujo #bulletjournal #bookworm #bookish https://www.instagram.com/p/B_vTHJrAqe4/?igshid=1fu8ndgjjbv2q
