Hi! April is my last grad-school-free month of 2019, so I’ll be reading whatever I feel like… I know, it’s very different from how I normally read. š
Reading challenges:
O.W.L.’s Readathon:
This is a month-long readathon, and rather than planning to complete specific challenges I’ll just see which challenges I complete with the books I feel like. Some that I have checked out from the library right now are:
- Once and Future by Amy Rose Capetta and Cori McCarthy
- Cry Wolf by Patricia Briggs
- Wicked Saints by Emily A. Duncan
- The Near Witch by V. E. Schwab
- On the Come Up by Angie Thomas
- Bird Box by Josh Malerman
- Parasite by Mira Grant
- The Avant-Guards, #1 by Carly Usdin and Noah Hayes
- My Plain Jane by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows
Reading my Faves (see last month for an explanation)
Destiny: either Girls on the Verge or Raven Boys
Chelsea: A Quick and Easy Guide to Queer and Trans Identities by J. R. Zuckerberg and Mady G
Cece: Ivy Aberdeen’s Letter to the World by Ashley Herring Blake
Things I’m looking forward to:
I let myself get OwlCrate this month, so I’m really excited for that. ^_^ My other exciting event this month was going to Caitlin Starling’s launch on the 2nd, which was definitely amazing.
So there’s my vague plan for April! Anyone else doing the O.W.L.’s?

Oh man, Girls on the Verge was SO GOOD. It was a super quick read (it’s only 240pg, I think?) and it flew by. I thought it would be really sad, given the topic, and it does have some sad moments (more infuriating than sad, I guess), but it also cracked me up so many times. The characters just have such a good sense of humor and they feel like real teens, googling everything and turning weird things into sex jokes. I loved it and I hope you do too if you read it this month! ā„
