I had a rough start to my reading month. I just couldn’t focus on anything in print until midway through the month. It was incredibly frustrating, and damaging to my review schedule… I’ll be reading up a storm to catch up! A couple of books came off of my review schedule because I hated them, and didn’t feel like spending the time on the review (Looking at you, THE MERCY IN THE TIDE & THE INEXPLICABLE LOGIC OF MY LIFE.)

Anyway, here’s my wrap up for the month with many links! I hope you enjoy!

8 Books Read:

The Mercy in the Tide (DNF) | Girl Out of Water (Review: 4/24) | The Secret Life of Anna Blanc (Review: 3/2) | The Alchemist | The Summer That Melted Everything (Review: 3/3) | Hidden Figures* | The Secret of a Heart Note | The Inexplicable Logic of My Life (DNF) | Queens of Geek | Hope In Nautical Dusk* |

* = still reading
