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?

March 2025 TBR

Update for last month: I'm terrible at sticking with my TBR. I finally finished the Kindle book that I started in January and have moved onto another that I just am struggling to get through. I have listened to tons of audiobooks so I did finish 18 books and DNF'd 1 book in February. I have 3 books remaining of the 4 books on my TBR.

Goals for this month: In March, I am continuing with my new TBR prompts: high priority, Netgalley, older hauled, and newer hauled. I think I may have slightly more success this month because 2 are romance and one is a middle grade book.

My TBR for March:

• The Midnight Orchestra by Jessica Khoury (Physical)
• Rebel in the Deep by Katee Robert (Kindle)
• The Reader by M.K. Harkins (Kindle)
• Hot Vampire Next Door by Nikki St. Crowe (Kindle)
  

What are you planning on reading in March?
