Monthly Round-Up! April 2021

Monthly Round-up, linking everything that has happened in the last month, posted on the last day of said month. This Round-up  April 2021. So my TBR is growing. This month has in a way been a bit of a disaster. At the start I ended up in hospital and had to have an emergency operation. Which then left me tired and in pain. Or as I like to call it healing pain. Anyone else know what I mean? But it also led to a lack of concentration meaning that new books had no appeal. So I’ve been rereading some of my favourite which has been nice. but it has meant that the books on my Netgalley Shelf have exploded. Plus the books I have read I still have not reviewed. It’s going to take time but I will get myself organised!   Currently reading:   Reviews:   Blog Tours:   Challenges: As per usual I’m participating in the Goodreads Challenge. I’m still doing really well on my challenge which is good but I seem to be reading rereads rather than […]

Monthly Round-Up! March 2021

Monthly Round-up, linking everything that has happened in the last month, posted on the last day of said month. This Round-up March 2021. So I thought that I had set this to publish at the end of last month as should be the way. But for some reason I did not press schedule. I then ended up in a hospital for an emergency operation so this is the first opportunity I had to publish. I didn’t do much in March, I had no energy to write my reviews, which is why I only have a couple of posts but here’s to next month. Or should I say this month. Currently reading: Reviews:   Blog Tours:   Challenges: As per usual I’m participating in the Goodreads Challenge. All I can say is that I seem to be doing really well with my reading this month. Although Lockdown could have an impact and with restrictions easing, my reading habit could change.   So what do you think of my round-up March 2021? What have you read this month? Let me know in […]
