Did you enjoy HATCHETT as I see you are reading Paulen's other book? I teach that book as a class novel often and the students LOVE it..and so do I. I think all of Gary's books are good! ..and wow, you really get a lot read in a month! I can't wait to read more starting in June because I am retiring with all my time to read, review, and write...wahoo! Happy May Day, Tink!
ReplyDeleteBingo: I loved Hatchet the first time I read it... in class as a middle schooler (I believe, it may have been elementary) and my opinion hasn't changed though I have. :) We also read Brian's Winter but I don't remember much about it (I didn't really remember Hatchet that well either which is why I re-read it). I didn't read quite as much as I had hoped in April but I'm still pleased with the number lol. Congrats on retiring and Happy May Day to you too!
ReplyDeleteI read Evernight this month, too! What did you think of it?
ReplyDeleteWell done, Jen! I read 12 books in April too. :D
ReplyDeleteYou beat me by one book this month. I will have to try harder. Well done.
ReplyDeleteKailana: It was good but not amazing. Maybe since I had just finished The House of Night novels and was still craving them is why I wasn't blown away by it. I will pick up the next book though I still wish Bartholomew was the leading man *sigh*
ReplyDeleteAlice Teh: You go girl! I just haven't been reading as much lately and I fear May might be even worse for me...
Scrap Girl: Still, 11 is really good! April 2008 I only read 10.
Hi LadyTink!
ReplyDeleteI have about half your books in my TBR stack!!
I had a slow month in April, nothing like what you did!!
(I left comments on the reviews you left the links for -- reviews were great.)
Dottie :)
You had a great month Jen! I still have to do my wrap up. You beat me though by one or two I think.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on an April full of good books!
ReplyDeleteyou got some great reading in, I really enjoyed Inkheart.
ReplyDeleteI want to add The Haunting of Hill House to my TBR.

Jen, you seem to have a great reading month each month because you're such a fast reader! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou had a good month, huh. Does this mean that you're done with the House of Marked series? Or is there more after what you've read?
ReplyDeleteMy Blog 2.0 (Dottie): Lol, I hope you like them as much as I did :) Thank you!
ReplyDeleteDar: Thanks! I doubt May will be quite as good since I'm kind of in a slight reading slump and I'm going to working on the house soon. I'll come by and check out your wrap-up.
Toni: Thanks!!! :o)
Naida: Inkheart was a great re-read but I just wasn't that crazy about The Haunting of Hill House.
Melody: Maybe that's it because I certainly didn't put any effort in during April lol. Especially those last two weeks!
Rebecca: Hunted is the last one until October or Novemeber but at least I'm all caught up!
wow you were busy last month!
ReplyDeleteGreat month! Looks like a nice selection. Happy reading!
