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.

Reading Update
So I have read 4 books this month. Never Have I Ever (The Lying Game #2) by Sara Shepard. Songbird by Angela Fristoe The Education of Hailey Kendrick by Eileen Cook. Delirium by Lauren Oliver
All of the books are from my to be read shelf and I have enjoyed all of them. I am senting Delirium to my sister to read. I hope she enjoys the book as much as I did. I am excited that Delirium's second book will be coming out at the end of the month. Not that I will be buying it anytime soon. I just like knowing the book is out there to be read.
Hugs and smiles. Happy reading to all my followers.

My Reading Goals
So last year I read 50 books. I was happy I read 50 books but I did slack off for about a month. So I could have done better. This year my goal is to read 52 or more books. I have won many books this past year and bought books. I an going to try to not buy any more books until I read at less 15 of the book I have. I figure if I put it in writing then I have others to keep me on track. I will keep you updated with my book adventures and life adventures also. Hope all is well with all of you. Have an awesome day. Hugs and Smiles.
