Reading and Reviewing
Well, whereas March was a crazy busy month for me, April was a bunch of nothing except tons of work. I'm starting to come to the realization that I can't read as much as I have in the past because of my current work circumstances. Then again, I feel really frustrated when other people who read waaay more than I do complain about being unable to read as much... like woe is me, I can't keep up with 20 books a month, etc. so maybe I should be happy with the 6 I read this month and leave it at that. ;)
Anyway, here is what I reviewed in the month of April:
- Escape From Camp 14 by Blaine Harden
- Secret Daughter by Shilpi Somaya Gowda
- Quiet by Susan Cain
- Sacre Bleu by Christopher Moore
- Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo
- The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh
- Faith Bass Darling's Last Garage Sale by Lydia Rutledge
- A Grown Up Kind of Pretty by Joshilyn Jackson
- Night Swim by Jessica Keener
- The Lola Quartet by Emily St. John Mandel (review posted technically in May)

Looks like you had a very productive month. I need to go back and read some of your previous reviews that I missed!
Allison @ Well-Read Reviews
I'm looking forward to your review of A Grown Up Kind of Pretty!
THANK YOU!! I am looking forward to reading "Escape From Camp 14".
First thing I learned is that you can't compare yourself to other book bloggers or you'll go nuts. I can't read 20 books a month no matter how hard I try. Some people are retired and have more time. Others must be speed readers. And just think ... the more books you read, the more reviews you have to write! HAHA! Enjoy May!
Looking forward to reading your reviews on Night Swim and A Grown Up Kind of Pretty. I think we "book people" always wish we can read more whether we read 3 books a month or 20. It's never enough..lol! Have a great May.
Definitely be happy with your reads:-) I like to focus on quality rather than quantity anyway, and you read some fabulous books last month. I hope May brings good reads too!
You are doing so good!!!
