April Books

In April my reading seemed to slow.  I finished 8 books this month, and only marked off one prompt for the PopSugar Challenge.

The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness
This is a great coming of age story about a group of kids in their senior  year.  I felt that it really captured the struggles of the last year of high school.

The Nightengale by Kristin Hannah
This book does not fall into my typical genres, I read it because it was a buddy read for my book club.  I am glad I read it.  It is very well written.  It is very informative about life in France during WWII.  I admired the characters Isabelle and Vienne for how they stood against the Nazis in their own way to save others.

Slenderman by Willow Rose
This book was very interesting.  I was very impressed by the author.  There are so many different points of view.  It had to be difficult to write them all.

PS I Love You y Cecelia Ahern
I read this book after watching the movie. I loved the movie, I also loved the book. However, be prepared as there are many differences between the book and the movie. Still an incredible story of helping a loved one get over the loss of another. So romantic, heartbreaking, and beautiful.

Running Barefoot
This book is an amazing inspirational romance.  Josie and Samuel become friends on the bus to and from school.  Josie feels like it is something more, but there is a bit of an age difference, and Samuel thinks she is too young. Another amazing coming of age story.

If I Stay by Gayle Forman
In this book we follow Mia while she relives her life while she watches the people who care for her rally around her while she is in a coma.  It makes you wonder if this could be something people who are in a coma go through.  Reliving good times and bad, so many different memories and experiences.  An amazing story.

Wildfell by London Clarke
This book was intense. A little bit of romance, some murder and paranormal activity, plus a whole lot of suspense. It had me on the edge of my seat. Love joining Anne on her adventure surviving Wildfell. I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review

Give Me Yesterday by K. Webster and Elle Christensen
When the prologue of a book breaks your heart it makes you wonder how the rest of the book will be.  This book happened to be amazing.  Carefully putting my heart back together, breaking it again, and then finally healing it.  This book was full of so many amazing feels.
