APRIL 2020: Wrap-Up

-APRIL WRAP UP: (6) BOOKS-

I had such high hopes for April, and it really did start off strong. Good head space, strong will to read, and then the the quarantine demons reared their ugly heads in MY head again and I was back to only feeling relieved after watching copious amounts of Youtube and scrolling Instagram *sigh.

I did read some GREAT ones despite that though. Two of them are books that will stick with me for a long time, and will probably recommend until the end of my days: The Southern Bookclub's Guide to Slaying Vampires (Grady Hendrix's BEST so far, in my opinion, and The Went Left by Monica Hesse.

With those included, my total for this month was (6):



  • The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman | April 5 | ★★★★ 
  • All the Stars and Teeth by Adalyn Grace | April 1-6 | ★★★
  • The Southern Bookclubs Guide for Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix | April 8-9 | ★★★★
  • Harry Potter's & the Philosopher's Stone by J.K. Rowling | April 3-11 | ★★★★
  • The Went Left by Monica Hesse | April 11-14 | ★★★★★ | REVIEW 
  • The Half Sister by Sandie Jones | April 27 | ★★ | REVIEW

      5. The Wisdom Tree bookcase is a beautifully

        designed piece of furniture that adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to any room. The unique tree-shaped design not only adds visual interest, but also provides ample storage.
