What I Read in April

I did read Overmorrow in April, however I received the updated newest version and after re-reading it I will add it to Mays monthly wrap up. I’m horridly late coming out with this but it takes me a long time to make these on Canva, and sometimes I don’t have the energy. I also didn’t read much this past month, I have little reading energy in the spring, not sure why.

... Read moreIn April, I explored a variety of books, predominantly thrillers that keep readers on the edge of their seat. One gripping title, described as a psychological thriller, reveals the intricate lives of three women intertwined with the dark past of Aiden Thomas, a notorious serial killer. The narrative’s layered perspectives deeply engage readers, heightening their emotional investment as they navigate through suspenseful twists and revelations. Titles like this exemplify the genre's ability to blend character development with a gripping plot. Additionally, I dove into a blend of contemporary romance and fantasy novels that offered respite from the intense thrillers. For instance, one enchanting romance follows Hallie as she navigates the complexities of adult relationships while engaging in a playful wager with Jack, a guy from her past. The lightheartedness and charm of such books provide a delightful contrast to the more serious tone of thrillers. As spring unfolds, my reading energy fluctuates, reflecting the season's changing pace. Despite this, I find solace in the worlds crafted by authors across various genres, knowing that each book holds a treasure trove of experiences waiting to be uncovered. Whether it’s through thrilling suspense or romantic misadventures, there’s always a new story to dive into.

Also, do you make your posts on Canva? They look amazing! I make mine with Lemon8 and it takes me sometimes an hour to put together a post. I’ve learned a few tricks to make it go by faster, though

April was a good month: while I read 15, I DNFed 2 (not listed or shown) and completed 13. The wide variety kept me entertained all month and never once did I feel like I was falling into a reading slump. I even had two 5-star books and several 4-star books! Can’t wait to see what reading journeys

What I read in April 📚
Started the month off with psychological thrillers and ended with horror.. If you love thrillers, I highly recommend Then She was Gone and We Were Liars. My first time reading anything by Dean Koontz in all my years of reading. I don’t know why I waited so long to pick up one of his books.

I had such a good reading month. While I read about half the number of books I typically do, I found that it was a perfect sweet spot and I’m going to try to limit my reading to around 5 books a month moving forward. I was able to take my time with each book, and with that I found a more reward
