In April I read fourteen books, as some were a bit longer, and others required more attention, and I had a lot going on during that month. I loved most of the books I read, so I cannot choose a favourite, but I adored We Could Be Something by Will Kostakis, which had so many special things about it, the review says it all. I also got to interview Will for my blog. I completed the Autumn prompts for the Dymocks Reading Challenge as well. Now, onto May and more reading!
