A glimpse into April // Let’s try the possibility pile again

Hello, sweet peas!

I think it’s time to try a couple of new goals again. I like to put them up at the beginning of the month and then forget about them and see at the end of the month what I inadvertendly did. Well, let’s just see how this is gonna go.

📚 Goal 1 – Read and review eArcs

I have two eArcs from Netgalley still that need reading and reviewing. One is “The Girl in the Wooden Armour” that I have already started. I quite like the book although I’m not okay with some of the dad’s choices.

📚 Goal 2 – Write at least 4 reviews

Since it worked great last month, I hope that I can continue with that streak. I have some ideas which books I wanna review but I have to take some new pictures.

📚 Goal 3 – Do buddy reads

📚 Goal 4 – Write at least one discussion post!

This month I wanna write at least one discussion post. Or just any post that is not a WWW Wednesday or a review. I have so many ideas but the problem is finding some content for those ideas.

📚 Goal 5 – Update the tbr page of my blog

It’s the same goal I had last month and I have started. The problem is that I have really a lot of books on my tbr and I’m not done updating that page.

📚 Goal 6 – Continue reading IT

I’m still only 100 pages in and I know it might still take a while to finish this book. But if I read a little bit every day, then I might just get it done this month.

📚 Goal 7 – Read at least 3 books from the tbr and don’t buy any new ones

I look at my real actual personal tbr and have to sigh because it’s just so big. I really have to read some of the books that are on there and I won’t buy any new books this month. At least I will try. I know that there are a lot of great books coming out in May and I’m gonna want to read them all so I’ll just try and read some off the tbr first. I think 3 is a modest number and it’s so low and easier achievable and I don’t wanna be disappointed in case I don’t make it which might be the case with a bigger number.

The Possibility Pile

Look. I know that I didn’t read one book of my Possiblity Pile last month. But to be fair, I didn’t read that many books at all last month. More like seven? I definitely wanna do better this month and so I’m just putting some new books on that pile.

📚 The Storm Runner by J.C. Cervantes. I think I can not do anything wrong with a Rick Riordan Presents book. It has mythology and disability rep and I just think that I might have a lot of fun with this book.

📚 Every Hidden Thing by Kenneth Oppel. Kenneth Oppel is one of my favourite authors. This one is a standalone and I’m quite curious about it although that’s what I said when I bought it a couple of years ago too.

📚 Pages & Co – Tilly and the lost fairytales by Anna James. I actually loved the first book so I hope I will like the sequel as well.

📚 The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary. I heard a lot of good things about this book and it has been lying on my tbr for long enough now. I think it’s good to have some variety on my Possibilty Pile and while I’m not that much into romance books anymore I still hope that I will like this one.

📚 The Highland Falcon Thief by M.G. Leonard. I love trains. I would definitely love to ride a steampowered train all across England or across any (small) country. I’m curious about this book and hope that I will like it.

📚 The Mysterious Affair at Syles by Agatha Christie. I have decided that I will definitely read the first Hercule Poirot mystery next. I do have some books of the series unread at home but this one will definitely be the next one I read.

What are your plans for April? Do you know any books on my list? Do you have any recommendations?
