And just like that, we’re through the first month of the second quarter of 2019 and it’s time for April wrap-up. Personally, April is my favourite month. For very selfish reasons: it’s my birthday month! I spent a whole week at home, back in Estonia. It was great as the weather was unusually warm and I managed to spend a lot of time with my nana. My boyfriend flew out to surprise me for my birthday so I really couldn’t have asked for a better holiday. Anyway, long story short, here’s my April Wrap-Up. What I’ve been up to in April 2019 Reading wise April was also the most successful…

April’s New Books | 30 Days of April #17
Here’s the thing. I, Katlin, am officially on a book buying ban until end of May. No more new books until then! I complained the other day about my boyfriend having a fit because everywhere he looked there were books, and I then counted my TBR (see here) and agreed it’s completely out of control. No better time to do April’s book haul, amirite? So here are April’s New Books:

It was run by my neighbour so no age restrictions applied to us! Winning! But what is it that makes me reach for those type of films and books now? Let me explain. 🤡 Horror and gore no longer scare me Now, whilst I find it…

What’s on my TBR | April 2019 | 30 Days of April #3
To put it lightly I failed March’s TBR Jar picks bigtime, because I had so many other great books that got approved on NetGalley and I just.. chose to read those instead. So for April, arguably the best month of the year, I’ve chosen the books off my shelf that I just cannot wait to read any longer. Bookshelf Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine – Gail Honeyman This book was on everyone’s reading list last year, and I am so late to jump on. I can wait no longer, and getting myself a fix of Eleanor and her highly praised story. The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle – Stuart Turton…

Ready, Set, Go | APRILATHON | 30 days of April #1
I love a challenge every now and then. When I thought about what my goals are for April, especially with the blog and where I want to go with it- I knew I needed to really push myself. So in honour of April, my favourite month, I decided to push all the boundaries and challenge myself to write 30 posts, not including the weekly memes and book reviews. Let me be clear – this is no April fool’s joke. (Although should I fail, it totally is!!🤦) For the next 30 days, I will be uploading a book related post. From reasons why I like to read to blind date with…
