March 2025 Book Haul

March went by way too quickly for my liking and it was not a super strong reading month for me. I hauled 14 books and have read 9 of them and 5 are unread, bringing my yearly unread total up to 9 books. I'm at 82% read which is a bit of a decrease from last month.

In March, I spent $30.33 total and saved $227.23 by using my local library :)

April 2025 TBR

Update for last month: Another month of me not sticking to my TBR but to be fair, I feel like I didn't read very much in March either so that was definitely one of the issues. I finished 9 books and have all 4 remaining from my March TBR. I have 2 from Jan and 2 from Feb as well.

Goals for this month: In April, my goal is to read my entire TBR and maybe a couple from past months as well.

My TBR for April:

• Goddess in the Machine by Lora Beth Johnson (Physical)
• Pucking Sweet by Emily Rath (Kindle)
• The School for Good & Evil by Soman Chainani (Kindle)
• The Fall Risk by Abby Jimenez (Kindle)

What are you planning on reading in April?
