April Reads 🌸

Gild - I think I rated this a 3/5 on good reads . I don’t think I read the triggers page before reading this 🥴🥴 that’s my mistake 🙂‍↕️ but I did notice other people saying the following books aren’t as bad as book 1 so I’m going to keep reading 🙂

These infinite threads - this series has become one of my top favorites which is ironic considering the shatter me series is also one of my favorites and they both have the same author. I love her work and can’t wait for the release of books 4 & 5!

Powerless/Powerful - I started powerless I don’t know how many months ago and ran out of time on my libby app and didn’t put another hold on it until recently. I love these books so much 🥹 they’re also another of my top favorites

Unlock the dark - I have a locked library subscription and this was their may book I believe so I had to read it before renewing for may and enjoyed it! I think I did say the romance portion was a bit rushed though

The ballad of never after / a curse for true love - 10/10 🥴 april was a good reading month for me because this series is also one of my top favorites 😂😂😂

My absolute favorites (ones that changed my whole life 🙂‍↕️) include: the folk of the air, shatter me, this woven kingdom, acotar, ouabh, poison study, powerless, and the empyrean series

I also read scythe and sparrow this month but there wasn’t any room left to add it 🧡

... Read moreApril has been an exciting month for readers, filled with exceptional book releases and captivating stories. If you're looking for recommendations, the 'Shatter Me' series by Tahereh Mafi continues to be a favorite for many, combining intrigue and romance in a dystopian setting. Additionally, 'Powerless' by Lauren Roberts has captured the hearts of readers, diving deep into themes of resilience and empowerment, making it a must-read. The darker and more expressive storytelling in 'Unlock the Dark' will keep you on the edge of your seat, while the romantic twists in 'A Curse for True Love' bring a magical essence to the narrative. For fans of fantasy, 'This Woven Kingdom' offers an imaginative backdrop paired with rich character development. Don't miss out on 'Scythe' and 'Sparrow,' novels that intertwine moral dilemmas and gripping plotlines. If these genres resonate with you, the aforementioned titles should not be missed in your reading list!

Books read? Several. Emotional damage taken? Severe. TBR progress? Negative. At this point, reading is less a hobby and more a full-time job with no salary and constant heartbreak... and honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way. Drop your favorite April read below! My favourite this m

I've been working more and it's been causing me to need to sleep more, so I've had less time to read than I'd like. Honestly I've been in a reading slump too. I don't have the attention span to invest in a book right now and I'm kinda sad about it. Hopefully I can start
