When You Read All Month | April Wrap Up

When You Read All Month | April Wrap Up

April 30, 2020 Posted by angelreads Monthly Wrap Up 2 Comments

After a slower reading month for me in March, things really picked up for me in April and I’m so glad. Most of the month I read a range of romance with a little MG thrown in there. And I think that is what I needed. Reading romance is a great outlet for me and I don’t normally have to think too much when reading them – which is fantastic. 

Anyway, here are all the 35 books that I read in April. Like always these are in no order. 

Steadfast (True North #2) by Sarina Bowen: I felt like a reread of this one from the series. I’m not even sure why. It is one of my favourites though. This one is an emotional read, but I still really enjoy it a lot. I just love Jude so much. 

The One You Can’t Forget (The Ones Who Got Away #2) by Roni Loren: I’m slowly making my way through this series and I’m loving it. But it’s hard to read. I normally love binge reading series – which you will see today. But I just can’t do it with this one. It deals with such a hard topic and each book is emotional as hell. But, also so good. 

Irresistible (Cloverleigh Farms #1) by Melanie Harlow: I really felt like a good romance with a single parent and this one popped up in my searches. And I’m really glad that it did. I liked this one a whole lot. It was such a fun read and I loved seeing all the character fall in love with one another. I loved the relationship between the two protagonist and his kids – it melted me. 

Undeniable (Cloverleigh Farms #2) by Melanie Harlow: Yes I kept on reading this series. It’s all on Kindle Unlimited, so it was so easy. I adored this one so much. It features a second chance romance, as well as love to hate. Come on! It was such a fun read. And the romance was adorable.  

Storm (Storm MC #1) by Nina Levine: Another romance subgenre I’ve been really into lately is MC romances. And this one came up as a recommendation. And the second book in the series was a single parent. It was a bad decision. This one was bad. Really bad. I’ve read a lot of MC romances now and this one has to one of the worst. 

Insatiable (Cloverleigh Farms #3) by Melanie Harlow: This one is a friends to lovers romances and this one is hella adorable. Not my favourite in the series, but I still really enjoyed it. Noah and Meg just fit really well and I loved getting to see them find out things about one another.  

Unbreakable (Cloverleigh Farms #4) by Melanie Harlow: This one is the last in the series that is out so far and like the others, I enjoyed it a lot. This one melted me so much. It’s a single parent romance that was done well. It explored the ups and downs of divorce and everything that follows. As well as looking into starting a new family. It was so good! 

Fierce (Storm MC #2) by Nina Levine: I don’t know why I continued. I really don’t. Maybe I wanted to see if it got any better. But it didn’t. Not at all. 

Wind Dragons MC #1-3 by Chantal Fernando: I wanted to read a good MC romance, so I picked up one I’d read before and dug into a few in the series. Some of the things that happen in these are ridiculous. But I love it. That is what I feel an MC romance is. I think my favourite of these 3 has to be Dragon’s Liar. 

 

Percy Jackson and the Olympians 1-5 by Rick Riordan: I’ve been wanting to do a re-read of this series for some time now. And my siblings were watching the movies and I couldn’t help and start the series again. And I’m so glad that I did. Seriously it’s just fantastic. And if you haven’t read it. Please do. It was such a great time being back in this world. And truly reminded me why I love it so much. 

Luna and the Lie by Mariana Zapata: I’ve wanted to pick up a Mariana Zapata for some time now. And after watching a couple of videos from PeaceLoveBooksxo. I thought I would give this one a go. Overall I did enjoy this one, however, I thought it was way too long. I felt at times that things did drag on and I was just waiting and waiting for things to happen. I do want to try more from her though. 

Shameless (Texas Nights #1) by Lex Martin: This is another author that I’ve seen pop up a lot with romance bloggers and I felt that this one was my kind of thing. And I’m so happy that I picked it up! The romance was adorable. It melted my heart so much. I loved seeing both Brady and Katherine trying to figure everything out. I loved seeing Brady with the baby. It was adorable. I don’t know if I will continue with the series yet. But I enjoyed this one. 

Becker Brothers #1-4 by Kandi Steiner: I didn’t know too much about this series before I started. But they were such a good time. I loved the overall mystery surrounding the family and that was threaded through all of the books. The romances were all fantastic and I just had a good time. 

Knights Rebels MC #1-3 by River Savage: I again feel into the MC romance. While this wasn’t as bad as some I’d already read this one. It wasn’t the best. However, I still enjoyed each one that I read and will continue reading the series as each book comes out. 

The Fallen Men #1-4 by Giana Darling: This is another author that has been on my radar for some time now. But again didn’t really know where to start. But since I was in the mood for MC romances, I thought it was a perfect time. And I love this series. It’s not for the faint-hearted, but it was such good fun. And it did rip me apart, a little. I can’t wait to read more. 

Hades Hangmen #1-5 by Tillie Cole: This isn’t a series that I would recommend to everyone. It’s hard to read most of the time and there is a lot of questionable things that happen throughout the novel. But I found that all intriguing. It’s a MC romance for sure. If you love your MC romance and are okay reading things that are really tough and not great – then go for this one. If not – stay away. 

 

 

And that is everything that I read this April! It was a strong reading month for me, with a lot of romance reads. I think next month will be very similar as well, cause it’s what I’m in the mood for. What did you read this April, anything the same? Let’s Chat!

    Oh my gosh, that is so many books. Haha. Not gonna lie I’m a little jealous. Things did not go as planned in April for me. I’ve been wanting to reread the Percy Jackson series as well! I just need to actually get myself a copy.

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
…

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
