I’ve been reading a ton again this month including a number of best sellers. Read my reviews on these popular books below. If you enjoy historical fiction as much as I do, I have a four-star book recommendation for you this month!

Reading has saved me during these months of stay-at-home orders. It is something enjoyable that I can do to give myself little breaks during the day. While the girls are watching Disney+, I read. When they go outside to play in the yard, I read. Clearly I have been getting a ton of reading done since we aren’t able to go anywhere. I asked on Instagram (@planningforkeeps if you want to follow!) if I should add more book reviews this month and an overwhelming majority said “yes”. So here they are – four MORE books reviews for May.

This month’s book reviews include a 5-star book! I hope you all are getting as much reading done as I am. This quarantine blows but I am reading so many books being stuck at home. More good news – libraries are now doing curbside pickup. If you are a person who likes to read physical books take advantage and go to your library’s website to find out how you can pick up some new books. Maybe select one from my book reviews down below.

I’ll admit that my reading choices for the month of April involve some serious topics. This month’s book picks cover WWII, a plane crash, and child abuse/neglect. I promise next month to include more light-hearted recommendations but these are really good books! If you don’t have the mindset to read them right now maybe put them on your “to-read” list. Instead, select a happier book from my favorite book reviews from last year.
