March wrap-up!

March has been a manic month, but somehow I still managed to read loads of books! I think I’m secretly using books as a coping mechanism. Here is the re-cap of all the books I read this month, and thankfully it isn’t late this month!


What I Thought Was True by Huntley Fitzpatrick
Gwen’s summer as a companion for an elderly neighbour gets interesting when Cass Summers gets a job as the ‘yard boy’ ★★★★

Radio Silence by Alice Oseman
a book about university, not being ready to enter the adult world, and secret youtubers that gave me all the feels ★★★★★

Spot The Difference by Juno Dawson
a wonderful short story for world book day about a girl who gets life changing medication that allows her to find out what its like to be popular - horrible ★★★★★

This Is Where It Ends by Marieke Nijkamp
a heartbreaking story about an hour of terror that Opportunity High School would never forget ★★★★★

Kindred Spirits by Rainbow Rowell
another beautiful story from Rainbow for world book day -with Star Wars nerds and peeing outside cinemas! ★★★★★

The Sleeping Prince by Melinda Salisbury 
the gripping sequel to The Sin Eater’s Daughter, Melinda has delivered yet another amazing book with heart-warming characters and her usual heartbreaking twists! ★★★★★

Finding Mr Brightside by Jay Clark
bought this book for the title (one of my favourite songs is Mr Brightside by the Killers), stayed for the amazing story! two damaged teens come together to fix each other - definitely one of my all-time favourite reads ★★★★★

Walt Disney: Drawn From Imagination by Bill Scollon
this is the story of the greatest man in entertainment history - I love Walt like a granddad and reading about his life has given me hope that anyone can achieve their dreams in they just believe in themselves. but there will never be another Walt Disney! ★★★★★

so I read eight books, all of which I enjoyed and I’ve picked up some new favourites along the way! these books totalled a massive 1,966 pages, which over 31 days of March, I somehow managed to read 63 pages per day! That’s 23 pages more than February and January! I’m concerned now that this will massively decrease in April.. But I’m very pleased I managed to read so much in such a busy month!

šŸ“–TBR for AprilšŸ“–
Before I Die - Jenny Downham
Crush - Eve Ainsworth
More Happy Than Not - Adam Silvera

I feel as though I’m being over-ambitious about April, I have another busy month ahead but I’ll try my best to get through this TBR!
