Ebook: 5 

Audio: 6

Genre:

Mystery - 9 

Fiction - 8

Romance - 1 

Favorite Books of the Month:



Ms. Mebel Goes Back to the Chopping Block by Jesse Q. Sutanto - The beginning was a little slow but the last half was fantastic - especially the ending.  Mebel is a character that will stay with me.

Soyangri Book Kitchen by Jee Hye Kim - This was a lovely quiet book with delightful book references.  

This Month's Rereads:



A Caribbean Mystery by Agatha Christie - one of my favorites for a reason!

Jane of Lantern Hill by L.M. Montgomery - same as above!

A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping by Sangu Mandanna - I was kind of meh on this book the first time I read it but it's definitely proof of just how much mood and expectations impact your reading experience.  This time I really enjoyed it.

This Month's Armchair Travel:


Domestic Travel:  I only visited one new state this month - North Carolina.  I revisited Maine, Connecticut, Kentucky, and New York.

International:  There was a lot of international travel!  I visited England 7 times, Australia, South Korea, Canada, and 1960s Barbados.

How was your reading for April?  Where did your reading take you?

  1. You are doing great. I keep reading less ebooks because I fall asleep at bedtime. Audio is the only way I am keeping up in the daytime.
