Hi April welcome to the group we are so happy to have you! Best of luck with your 20 books! Have a look around there are tons of challenges to join.
Hoping your first month was a success!
Two months down 10 to go! I hope March is a success for you.
A book is a dream that you hold in your hand. I hope that April brings you many more five star reads. Do you have a stand out book so far this year?
“Reading brings us unknown friends” While the warm weather is coming I hope you make some new friends in May! You are doing great keep it up!
I’m going to use the same outline for books they read every month from the Modern Mrs Darcy 2018 list. https://modernmrsdarcy.com/reading-ch... I’ve picked about half my books for the year for this list and I’ve got several I would like to finish in addition to these. I’m not necessarily following this order.
• A classic you’ve been meaning to read.
• A book recommended by someone with great taste.
• A book in translation.
• A book nominated for an award in 2018.
• A book of poetry, a play, or an essay collection.
• A book you can read in a day.
• A book that’s more than 500 pages.
• A book by a favorite author.
• A book recommended by a librarian or an Indie bookseller.
• A banned book.
• A memoir, biography, or a book of creative nonfiction.
• A book by an author of a different race, ethnicity, or religion than your own.
My first book is the first on the list, and the classic I’ve been meaning to read is Murder on the Orient Express. I might be the last of my family to read it. It’s my 3rd Agatha Christie, her books are just so enjoyable to read, not life changing but totally fun.
This month I’m also going to reread A Wrinkle in Time to prep for the movie coming out.
