    I did pitifully on the books by women. That kind of surprised me because i think i read a lot of women writers and if i'm not then who is?

      I did terribly on that one as well. I'm telling myself because it's mostly classics which I've done poorly at reading. I read more female writers than male writers so this was a surprise to me.

April Review/May at a Glance

Image
April April has by far been the best reading month in terms of getting into a good reading groove and spending the whole month with a book in my hand. And because of that I ended up reading 10 books and for the first time in years am still ahead on my reading goal (which at this point of the year is usually already failing.) I'm also trying out a new way of posting here, by posting 2-3 reviews of recent reads that all share a similar theme. The reviews are much shorter but this way there is a lot less pressure on me and I feel content to just read. Here is what I read in April: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One Day We'll All Be Dead and None of This Will Matter - Scaachi Koul Baseball Life Advice  - Stacey May Fowles ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Bluebell Bunting Society  - Poppy Dolan The Child  - Fiona Barton Welcome to Lagos  - Chibundu Onuzo Rich People Problems - Kevin Kwan There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyoncé  - Morgan Parker ⭐⭐⭐ Rock Solid: My Life in Baseball's Fast La...
