March Wrap-Up and April TBR

Happy April, friends! Okay, I am embarrassed to admit I haven’t done a proper Wrap-Up/TBR post since the start of November! I am excited to finally be back today to share what I’ve been up to this month.

Here’s how my reading went in March.

  • I finished a few children’s classics for the first time including Ella Enchanted, Tuck Everlastingand The City of Ember (review coming this weekend!)
  • I reread The Fault in Our Stars as my first reread of 2017 (1 down, 4 to go).
  • I also read The Bronte Plot for fun and to satisfy my nerdy British Lit loving soul!
  • I also finished Sense and Sensibility this month as part of the Classics Club. Review coming soon!
  • I’m making great progress on Les Miserables–and I love it!

And now for my April reading goals.

For the Classics Club:

continue Les Miserables by Victor Hugo // I am being a bit more casual in my Les Mis reading than with War and Peace. That’s because I enjoy it more consistently 🙂 Hoping to continue to

North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell // Next up on my shorter classics is this great one from Gaskell. I love the BBC mini series and I’m really excited to read this!

A Bestseller:

the_7_habits_of_highly_effective_people

 

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey // My husband actually recommended this book to me. I am listening to the audiobook and find is fascinating and inspiring. Hoping to make some positive habitual changes in my life as well!

An Award Winner:

life-of-pi-cover

The Life of Pi by Yann Martel // This one has been on my list forever, and I hope this is the month to start it. I anticipate it taking a while to read.

For Book Club:

25893693

Lilac Girls by Martha Hall Kelly // I am really excited about this book club choice. I love WWII time period novels.

For Fun:

1158967

Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen // A friend of mine recently recommended this book to me. I think it will be the perfect lighter read this month.
