April Wrap-Up

Well, that went by quickly… bye-bye April and happy May everyone! I feel as though I blinked and missed the month going by… I say this often, but these past few months I’ve been feeling it even more than usual.

April wasn’t a great reading month for me, to be honest. I’ve been a bit overrun with work and research for uni, so I’ve been reading a lot of reports and academic papers and feeling genuinely super tired in my breaks, so books have taken a bit of a back seat. For some reason, I didn’t listen to audiobooks much either though I’m not sure why. I fear I might be heading towards a much-dreaded reading slump, so I’ll try to focus on short and light books for a while to help get my mojo back.

Now, on to the books!

What I added to my shelves…
