March 2024 Reading Round Up

A beige square with 25 colourful book covers in a range of genres and audience groups. It has black text in the middle that says March 2024 Reading Round Up.

In March, I read 25 books, some quite ahead of time for review in my attempt to stay on track of things. I completed the first part of the Dymocks Reading Challenge and made good progress on my other reading challenges. One book had a male and a female author, so it was able to fit across multiple categories, as were many other books. Some challenges I am finding books as I go and slotting them in when I get to them. I have also updated my Dymocks Challenge for the next lot of prompts.
