Books I read in April

Sweetly, Anna and the french kiss, Love and leftovers,Hunk and The Iron King. The first four books are one's I own and the last one is from the library. I have read my goal of 15 books plus one I own I am so proud of this. The Iron King is the first book in the Iron Fey Series. I have the last book in the series on my bookshelf. I thought it would be good to get the series started and to be up to date with the series for future books. At the end of April I have read 17 books this year. Hope everyone is having a good day.
