In here, I will simply list all of the things I read for the month of April. The individual posts for this will be created later on (if I ever do it).
I managed to finish four books in April which is amazing because I've been kind of in a slump. This is also the first four books I read for this year.
- The Red Scrolls of Magic by Cassandra Clare and Wesley Chu (4/5)
- I have been waiting for this to be released so it's not surprising that this is the first book I read this year. I really love Malec and we got to see their relationship blossom in this book. I really love seeing them together.
- It's so nice to see characters we are familiar with in the series. The timeline of this is just after Valentine's War but we get to see characters that we first interacted with in The Dark Artifice Series which is interesting. I also got to see characters that are dead in the current timeline which broke my heart so much because it was fun seeing them again.
- The plot wasn't anything original but it was still an good enough book. It's good enough that it will motivate you to finish it but I must say that some of the events are kind of predictable.
- We got to see Aline and Helen! OMG.

- Best I've Ever Had by Abbi Glines (3.5/5)
- This is the first book in the Sea Breeze and Rosemary Beach Crossover that did not make me want to kill someone. It's still not the best thing ever from Abbi Glines's books but it is the best from the Sea Breeze and Rosemary Beach Crossover.
- I really loved Eli Hardy in the previous books and it was nice to see him get his own story. It made me mad that she made Eli went to some event that changed his personality because he was great before, and the Eli that returned seemed a little bit moody (though his reasoning is kind of valid). Eli's partner in this kind of surprised me because I did not see them together before (or maybe I just don't remember) but they were alright together. It just seemed shallow for me in the beginning that the foundation of their relationship was solidified because of sex but hey, it's an Abbi Glines book.
- I would have given this a higher rating if the ending didn't seem so rushed. After reading it I felt, 'That was it? Meh, okay.'

- Verity by Colleen Hoover (5/5)
- How can I begin to describe what I feel about this book? I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I really felt what a person should feel when reading a mystery/thriller book. Even after finishing it, I still don't know who is telling the absolute truth. There are so many messed up events that happened. I managed to finish this in one sitting because I couldn't wait to find out how things would unfold. And oh, boy are you in for a roller coaster ride. Colleen Hoover is really one of the best writer I have read books from.
- I have managed to read almost all of Colleen Hoover's book and this one just managed to land itself on my top 10.

- In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire (4.5/5)
- I wasn't really fond of Lundy in Every Heart a Doorway. She seemed bitter there. It was great that we got to read a book about her journey in the Goblin Market and how it affected how she lived her life. It really affected how I felt about her.
- I really enjoyed reading this one. The adventure was very interesting. The Goblin Market is a beautiful and dangerous place to read about. There are many rules that need to be followed and I admit I had a hard time catching up.
- Lundy was such a complicated character to read about. We knew how she felt about the Goblin Market all throughout the series but she kept denying what she wanted for the sake of others. I love her relationship with Moon and the Archivist.
- I felt the same emotions I felt for the first book of this series which made me really happy. This was a great story and I hope we get more in the future.
