I read nine books in April, which was my most prolific month of reading yet. I’m thrilled by that! I think the trick was reading a lot of novels, which I’ve been enjoying more than nonfiction lately. However, I did sneak a few nonfiction (and historical fiction) books in… 4 stars: To Sir, with Love, by Lauren Layne: This was such a sweet and fun rom com!
