So it's the 1st of May, and what better way to start a new month of reading than to show what I read through April and to show what I'm going to try and read in May!
APRIL - WRAP UP
As you may remember at the start of April, I created a TBR list of 4 books:
⭐ Havenfall by Sara Holland
⭐ Warrior of the Wild by Tricia Levensellar
⭐ Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco
⭐ The Stars We Steal by Alexa Donne.
Throughout the month of April I read 6 books, and 2 of them, surprisingly were from my TBR list!
The books that I read were as follows:
❤ Warrior of the Wild by Tricia Levensellar (4.04.2020 - 7.04.2020). I really enjoyed this book and the way that Tricia writes and builds her world and characters.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
❤ The Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levensellar (7.04.2020 - 12.04.2020). This was another brilliant book by Tricia. I loved the concept of this book it had a strong female lead who had her own mind. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
❤ Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco (12.04.2020 - 19.04.2020). It took me a while to concentrate on this book, my attention span kept vanishing! However when I focused on it, I really enjoyed it, even though I guessed the culprit early on, there were still twists and turns. ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5
❤ Family For Beginners by Sarah Morgan (23.04.2020 - 24.04.2020). I bought this book on a whim, as the blurb looked good and it was only 99p. I read this book in 6 hours. The storyline was written from 3 perspectives, it wasnt confusing if anything it made it more of a compelling read and wanted to know what was going to happen. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
❤ The Secret Kept from the King by Clare Connelly (30.04.2020 - 30.04.2020). I love a good Mills and Boon romance novel, and this was one of the good ones, really well written with enjoyable characters. The other thing about Mills and Boon books is that they are nice quick reads.⭐⭐⭐
❤ Crowning His Unlikely Princess by Michelle Conder (30.04.2020 - 30.04.2020). I really really enjoyed this book, it had a nice bit of angst and ended with a lovely happy ending and the characters were really well written. ⭐⭐⭐.5
MAY - TO BE READ
As I mentioned in last months TBR, I very rarely stick to my TBRs but having read 2 from last months and some anticipated reads that came out in April, I have high hopes I'll read 80% of this stack!
So what books do we have:
📚 The Switch by Beth O'Leary - I absolutely loved her book from last year, The Flat Share, and recommend it to everyone, so I've been waiting for this book since last year!
📚 Escaping From Houdini by Kerri Maniscalco - I have started this, but as with the previous one, i need to be in the right frame of mind to concentrate on it, but I'm determined to finish this series by the end of the year!
📚 Hold Back The Tide by Melinda Salisbury - I read a sample chapter of this book in march, and I was intrigued by it, so I'm hoping to get to this soon.
📚 Good Girl, Bad Blood by Holly Jackson - I read the first book in the series, this time last year, and it was probably one of my favourites of 2019 and I cant wait to dive back I to the world of Pip and Ravi.
📚 Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone by J.K. Rowling - I've been wanting to do a re-read of the series for a while, and what better time to start than during lockdown!
So there we have it, my April Wrap Up and my May To Be Read.
Here's hoping I read through that list, but please feel free to tell me your goals of the month!
I hope you're all having a good day and are staying safe.
Vanessa
