April 2024 Reading Round Up

In April I read 16 books, as some were a bit longer but I’m still on track to get things read. I’m catching up on my review books as well – most from the first five months have been read and reviewed, apart from ones that came after publication date, and that will be going up as soon as I can get them read.
