*Platypire Read-A-Thon* April

April has come in like a bipolar teenager (at least that's my understanding from seeing stateside friends posts on Facebook.) I'm sure if Maribel had any idea what kind of crazy weather patterns would be hitting the US when she made this graphic, she would have put snow on one side instead of the rainclouds. But that also means that I am late posting my new April list. Fun fact, April 2015 was the first month that I took part in the Platypire Read-A-Thon and you can check out my list from back then here. (It is so short, but I have at least read most of the books that were on it, not all, but most.) Without further ado, here is my reading list for April (and since I've already read and reviewed two books this month, I'm listing them as read.)

I went a little overboard on Netgalley this month, finding a whole slew of read now books that just sounded so good. Some of them are children's books though, so that should help me out a little, but I definitely added way too many books to my list this month. - Katie
