I decided to start this book for the #naturalitsy buddy read. I bought this audiobook with a credit I got this month with my Libro FM membership. I‘m not very far into this book but I like it. It‘s interesting so far.

Here‘s what I bought from the Libro FM sale. I wonder how many money The Book Attic will get from this purchase. I paid $17.45 for all of these audiobooks. I saved a lot of money. My subtotal was $24.95. I got a discount of $7.50 and I ended up paying $17.45. I think that‘s a good deal. I don‘t want to pay more for audiobooks if I don‘t have to. Paying $20, $30 or $50 for audiobooks is ridiculous. I‘m glad I found out about this sale.

I just went on Libro FM‘s website and I saw that they‘re having a sale so I bought some audiobooks. The Book Attic is the indie bookstore I‘m supporting so I got 5 audiobooks for $17.45. I didn‘t believe it at first because normally, the audiobooks cost a lot more on Libro FM and I don‘t usually want to buy them when they cost a lot but there was a discount on them so I got them for a good deal.

Here‘s my review for this book I just finished reading. This book is not in the Litsy database. I guess I‘m not too late reviewing this book because the publication date was April 15 and I didn‘t get it posted before that day but it‘s publication week for the book. Maybe they‘ll be happy that I‘m reviewing it and they won‘t care if it‘s a few days late. Right? I forgot to mention that it‘s available now to read on Kindle Unlimited.

Here‘s my progress on this book for #realmofelderlings readalong. The last time I read the book was April 9 so that was last week. I am making progress but I‘m reading at my own pace. I was enjoying this book but I took a break from reading this book because I wanted to read something else for a while.

I took the #threelistthursday quiz. It‘s all books from PBS‘s Great American Read list but the books are numbered from 100-1. My score is 24 of 100 - 24% but that‘s not right because I‘ve only read 23 books on this list. I don‘t know how I got 24. This is the 23 books I‘ve read from this list and my thoughts about them.

Here‘s my progress in this book now. I played a 2 hour Read With Me video tonight on YouTube to have on in the background while reading this book and I got a lot of reading done. I looked at my remaining time in the book and it says I now have 2 hours left. I always feel like I focus better on a book I‘m reading with my eyeballs if I play a Read With Me video in the background. I don‘t read with my eyeballs that often. I usually prefer audiobooks.

1. There were 2 I read that I think are unforgettable: Piranesi and The Starless Sea. I never understood what was going on in either of them. It felt like I was in a dream the whole time while reading both of them but I liked that about both of them too.

2. Unholy Obsessions by CM Radcliff. This book is a dark romance. The 2 main characters in the book didn‘t have romantic chemistry and I didn‘t like the sex scenes at all.

Here‘s my progress for this book that was released on April 15. I spent an hour reading this book last night but I had to play a Read With Me video from YouTube so I could focus. I was sent this ARC by Chasing Books PR. I saw that they have more ARCs you can sign up for but I don‘t think I‘m going to sign up for any more because I didn‘t even read this one before it was published. I‘m enjoying this book though.

1. I don‘t pay taxes because I live with my mom.

2. I‘m currently reading a book called “My Healthy Noggin” by Bokinia Colbert but it‘s not in the Litsy database so I tagged it under The Brain Book. The words I would use to describe this book are: self discovery. This book is making me think and giving me a lot to think about.

📚Sherlock Holmes - murder mysteries set in Europe
📚Assassin‘s Apprentice - Google says Realm Of The Elderlings is set in a world resembling the panhandle of Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.
📚My Healthy Noggin - It‘s nonfiction so it‘s not set anywhere.
📚Replay - I don‘t know what state this book is set in. All I know is that the characters are in college.

Here‘s my progress on this ARC that was sent to me from Chasing Books PR. It‘s really good. It comes out April 15th. I read 2 more chapters tonight so I made some progress. I‘m hoping to spend more time this weekend reading this. It‘s a sports second chance romance set in college. The guy and girl dated in high school and then they broke up and now, they‘re attending the same college. He‘s a football player and she‘s dating his teammate.

Here‘s my progress on this #roll100 book I started in February. I‘m still reading it and journaling along with it when the blank journal pages come up in the book. There are journal prompts but I‘m not doing them. I‘ve been choosing journal prompts that I find online or I do stream of consciousness writing where I‘m just filling up 3 pages in my notebook with just my thoughts. Anything that‘s on my mind at all.

Today, I got an email from St. Martin‘s Press saying that it‘s time to reapply for their Early Readers program so I reapplied and this is what they said afterwards. I haven‘t read the books they‘ve sent me to review because I‘m behind on ARCs but I reapplied for the program anyway. I‘ll find out in June if they‘ll let me stay in their Early Readers program or not but I hope I get to stay. I really like their books that they publish.

My mom and I both had iPhone 12s and now, we both have iPhone 16s. The picture I‘m showing is the difference between the iPhone 12 and iPhone 16 chargers. We have 1 charging cube that will work but we‘ll have to share it. Luckily, Amazon has charging cubes. The iPhone 12 charger can still charge my iPad but what I liked before was that I could use the same charger for my phone and my iPad and now, I won‘t be able to.

I slept all day. I didn‘t wake up until 3 PM. It was raining all day and I stayed in my nightgown. I didn‘t change into regular clothes. Tonight, I ate dinner and then I took a shower after dinner. I read more of Assassin‘s Apprentice by Robin Hobb for the #realmofelderlings buddy read. It‘s midnight right now so I‘m going to journal for a little bit and then get back to reading more of Assassin‘s Apprentice.

This book is a Netgalley book I was approved for before it was approved but I never got around to reading it. I found out that recently Taylor Swift is older than me by about 6 or 7 months so she‘s not that much older than me. Her birthday is December 13, 1989 and my birthday is July 9, 1990. She turned 35 in December. I‘ll be 35 in July. I like her so I think that‘s really cool.

This is a #roll100 book that was picked in February when the numbers were drawn. I‘ve been reading it since February 17. This was a book I found on Netgalley under the Read Now section and I didn‘t get around to reading it before it was published. Will I finish it this month? I don‘t know. I‘ve been journaling along with this book. This has a lot of blank journal pages and journal prompts. I might not have time to read my other #roll100 books.

Here‘s my #roll100 picks for April. I‘m still reading My Healthy Noggin. I‘m hoping I can finish it this month. I‘m looking forward to reading the *NSYNC book and reading Party Of One which is about being single. I‘m also looking forward to reading the book about black fashion designers. The only book I‘m not looking forward to is about Josephine Butler and women‘s rights. I‘m not in the mood to read about that but I will read it.

Here‘s my #bookspinbingo board for April. I like the background I picked. My theme for my bingo board is Easter/Spring. I also put images associated with Spring on the Free Space spots. The images are: Peeps (the Easter candy), an Easter egg, a bunny, a blue butterfly and the sun. I really like how my board looks. The birds have been singing outside my house over here. They‘re happy. Before I know it, it‘ll be time for them to have their babies.

There was a poll up on Fable to vote on the book. I was the only person who voted on April‘s book and my choice won the poll. I‘m excited. I‘ve been wanting to read Sorcery Of Thorns for a while. I feel like I should be able to get both of these books read.
