I did a lot of reading in May including many popular new releases. I had multiple five-star reads this month and that never happens! From my reviews below I hope you find a book to start your summer reading off right.

I read eleven books in April. A number of them were historical fiction and I was mostly disappointed in the genre that used to sustain my soul. Luckily, I have four book reviews below that I do recommend and offer variety.

It doesn’t feel like spring today but a few of the books I review below would be perfect to take on a spring break trip or will at least get you in a sunnier mood. I’ve read 34 books since the beginning of the year. I only ever review four books a month on this blog but I do rate each book I read over on my Instagram page (@planningforkeeps) if you are interested in even more book reviews/ratings.

The first half of February was amazing. My schedule was full of date nights, parties, and special events. The last half was awful. Basically, I’ve been coughing up a lung for over a week now. When I’m sick I tend to disregard all of my normal responsibilities but I am able to get in more reading than normal (bonus!). Below are the reviews of a few of the books I read this month.

My reading has been off to an excellent start this year! I’ve begun to mix in paper books alongside my Kindle and audiobooks because I get sick of waiting for my e-books to become available on the Libby app. I hate that I can only put on hold 10 books at a time through my library. I’m very much considering getting non-resident library cards all over the country for this reason. Below are my January book reviews from a good variety of genres to get your reading started off right in 2024.
