Total: 8
It doesn't look that bad, but 3 of these are comics, so really I only read 5. They were all pretty excellent, though, so it's going hard a top book.
Reviews:
Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira
Paper Aeroplanes by Dawn O'Porter
...Yeah.
Book of the Month:
So I couldn't choose between these two. They're both so amazing for different reasons and I love them both! Rooftoppers was also wonderful, but it's Crown of Embers and Murder Most Unladylike that just nudged their way to the top.
I also posted some UKYA recommendations for UKYA Day, and participated in the blog tour for Breaking Butterflies, if you're interested in those sorts of things!
This month I also went to the Dawn O'Porter event at Waterstone's Piccadilly, which was a lot of fun and Dawn had a lot of interesting things to say about stuff like celebrities writing books, religion, and fanny farts. As I said, a lot of fun.
May will most likely be another slow month around here as exams and revision and stress, but I hope to get my mojo back soon. It's been gone since, like, the beginning of this year and it'd be nice to post more than 4 things a month...
How was your April? :)
Good post!
