Hello April

                           🎕🎕🎕Hello April 🎕🎕🎕 

Hard to believe that it's April already especially when there is still snow here where i live. 

This month might be a little busier then last month but i hope to get some reading done when i can. 

This month i wont be doing as many events as last month since April is usually "Yard Work" Month pending on the weather. 

Here are the events i plan to do this month: 
Yearly Reading Challenge 
Book Bingo 
Instagram Photo Challenge 

Enclosed Below is a pic of my April TBR mostly Historical Fiction again.

Review for Dinner at Antoine's by Frances Parkinson Keyes

 Read in 2017 and 2022. 
EDIT: My thoughts on this book are still the same as they were 5 years ago when i first read it. 

Thank you to my neighbor for giving me this book. 

The Characters are still so interesting to read about. I loved the characters are they were very enjoyable to read about. 

The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually in New Orleans while reading. 

Really felt like i was in the 1940s while reading. 

Can't wait to read more by this author in the future!!

Review for The Bride of Ivy Hill (Tales of Ivy Hill #3) by Julie Klassen

 Rating: 5 Stars!! 

Review: 
Thank you again to My Great-Aunt for lending me this series to read back in November 2021!! 

Another Phenomenal Book in this series about 3 women living in Ivy Hill, England!! 

The Characters are still so interesting to read about. Lady Barbara came off as annoying to me since she kept trying to marry off her daughter even before the boyfriend popped the question. Jane and Thora are still my favorites. 

The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually back in Ivy Hill while reading. 

Overall a Phenomenal Book 3 in this series which i felt tied up all the storylines nicely!! Can't wait to read more by Julie in the future!!

Review for Moonlight and The Pearler's Daughter by Lizzie Pook

 Rating: 4 Stars!! 
Review: 
Thank you to Simon and Schuster for picking me to win this FREE ARC COPY in a giveaway on their website earlier this month!! 

This was my first time reading a book by Lizzie Pook so i wasnt sure what to expect but i wish i'd loved it more then i did but the back and forth of the timelines annoyed me. 

The Characters were intriguing and interesting to read about. I loved Eliza's character and her determination to finding out what happened to her father. 

The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually in Bannin Bay, Australia while reading. 

Overall a good Historical Fiction Book about The Pearling Industry!! Even tho the back and forth with the timelines bothered me, i do plan to check out more books by Lizzie in the future!!

Review for The Exiled Queen (The Seven Realms #2) by Cinda Williams Chima

Rating: 5 Stars!! 
Review: 
This was my first time reading a book/series by Cinda so i wasnt sure what to expect but i have to say i loved it so much since i reminded me alot of a mixture of Disney Movies. 

The Characters were so interesting to read about. Han and Rai were my favorites because of their backstory and connection. 

The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually in Fells especially when the scenery was described. 

I do think 587 pages and 37 Chapters was too much for a Book 2 in this series since not alot was happening in some chapters. 

Overall a Phenomenal Book 2 in this series about The Seven Realms!! Can't wait to read Book 1,3 and 4 soon!!
 

Review for Breach of Immunity by Molly Hite

 Rating: 1 Star!! 
Review: 
This was my first time reading a book by Molly Hite so i wasnt sure what to expect tho i thought i would of enjoyed it more then i did since it was set in an Inn. 

The Characters were interesting to read about. Anna Blessing was the only character i liked and enjoyed to read about. 

The Setting was OK but not much explained about it surrounding the Mystery. 

The Storyline was OK as well but not much about the Mystery. 

Overall an OK Mystery but ive read better!! I'll give her other books a go but i hope they all arent dull like this one was!! 

Review for Labyrinth of Lies (Triple Threat #2) by Irene Hannon

Rating: 5 Stars!! 
Review: 
Thank you to Revell for sending me this FREE ARC COPY to review for them last year!! 

This was my 3rd time reading a novel by Irene Hannon so i kind of knew what to expect since i read Book 2 of this series last year and i have to say i LOVED this one so much!! 

The Characters were so interesting to read about. Cate was my favorite because of her backstory and connections to The Girls of Ivy Hill Academy. 

The Setting was beautifully described which made me feel like i was actually at Ivy Hill with the characters especially when the scenery was described. 

Overall a Phenomenal Book 2 in this Romantic Suspense Series!! Can't wait to read Book 3 in this series soon!!
