April Wrap up& May TBR



So I over shot the number of books that I could read in April, and I have some big goals for May so I thought I would do a wrap up and TBR post in the same blog.

April

Honestly, I don't know why I didn't finish the books I had set to read last month. I was not reading the Ebooks every day, and that was the biggest problem. About halfway through the month I saw that I was just not realistically going to finish what I set out to read, and I needed to be okay with admitting that. I did finish three books and one of those was a read from start to finish so I was happy with that.

Too Much Is Not Enough by Andrew Rannells.

Rating 4.5 stars

Read from 3/12/19-4/10-19

This is a memoir by Broadway Actor Andrew Rannells. I did enjoy it but it was just not a five star read for me, and it was not the best memoir I've read.

Hotel Dare by Terry Blas with art by Claudia Aguirre

Rating - 4.5 stars

Read from- 4/1-4/17/19

This was an Earc I got from a give away from Book Riot I believe. I posted a review of  this Middle Grade Graphic Novel where I talk about my thoughts. I don't really see a need to restate them here, but if you enjoy Middle Grade, check out this book when it comes out in June.

China Rich Girlfriend by Kevin Kwan

Rating 5 stars

Read From- 3/25-4/28

I loved this book so much it was so much more dramatic than the first book but still so much fun!

May

May is a busy month for me, but I still plan on doing a lot of reading this month. I will do more a wrap up in my The Sunday Post later, but I wanted to release my TBR separately.

Finish

The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston

Sky Without Stars by Jessica Brody and Joanne Rendell

Rich People  Problems by Kevin Kwan

All For One The Alex and Eliza Trilogy #3 by Melissa De La Cruz

Start and Finish

Both of these are buddy reads for The Big Summer Readathon with The Procrastinators Book Club.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
