March 2012 Stats

Looking Back at March: I really struggled to fit in reading this month and am just under my goal. There are several reasons for that, one of which I will be sharing about this month; it's just something else that has consumed my attention and makes me happy. Unfortunately another reason is stress from work, something I don't see ending this month although I am trying to be more at peace with the situation there.  One more reason would be the books I was reading. Most of them were average reads for me, meaning that I didn't hate any of them but unfortunately I wasn't head over heels in love with most of them. I have 2 books to recommend below whereas last month I think I recommended 5.

Looking Forward to April: It's a pretty exciting month with lots of YA books in many different genres, almost exclusively published in 2012 so you can find out if the newest releases are worth your time. I'm also throwing in some adult reads including the latest Lauren Willig, The Garden Intrigue, which I have already read and loved. I will also be talking about my latest (non-book) obsession and why it is preventing me from reading.

  1. 24 is still nothing to sneeze at.

    I'm quite curious as to what your new obsession/interest is! :-)

  2. If you could see my face right now, you'd be able to tell that I'm in awe of how many books you've managed to read (again!) and shocked at how you think it could be little -- it never ceases to blow me away how much you manage to fit in thirty-one days of reading! :) I really need to get on reading Croak because I love reaper stories, and Spellcaster too!

    Another amazing and blow-me-away productive month B! It's too bad that it's only been full of okay-reads so far, but I can already tell there are going to be some fantastic reads in April! :) <3
