We decided to start doing a monthly recap. Since we post and read a ton we will hightlight what our favorite things were and what we hope to read the upcoming month. If you would like to see all our posts, here are our weekly wrap-ups.

♥ Both Jenn's and Michael's birthdays were this month! So Happy birthday guys!
♥ Readathon this month!
♥ I read 35 books for the month of April!! (Beat last month by 6 books!)
That's really the only interesting things that happened in April.
I have also decided that I am going to read a whole series every month. So I am going to take the series that I own all of, and every month I will read one. Then on the monthly recaps, or a separate post, I haven't decided yet, I will post a mini review for the series, my thoughts, quotes, fan art I find, and anything else I really want to do.
I feel like this well help me get through my series better.
So for the month of May, I have decided on The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

Books I'm hoping to read this month:
Jenn's Month
I had another good month. Read lots of books well listened to most of them. I discovered Scribd... which is a monthly subscription but it starts off with two months free. Which Woohoo. but it has a ton of audiobooks. Even once I start paying the monthly fee of 8.99.. the number of audiobooks so worth it. They also have ebooks. So good site. I have been enjoying so many audiobooks it's CRAZY! I do listen more than read because I have so much time at work (with the commute and work hours) I have 10 hours a day to listen. I listen to 2x speed. That is a lot of books to get done during my week. I only have about 1.5 hours a day to actually read. So reading goes much slower for me. I still do it every night though... at least try.
My birthday was this month, that was nice. Michael's too, which was also nice. Ash and her hubby John cooked us both a special meal and paid for us to go on a movie date. They are so wonderful.
I got quite a few books, free, subscription, bought, arcs. It was a good month. I seem to be better at keeping up with reviews too. It's hard when I go through so many audio a week to keep up but I am trying!
I started a new feature! The Bookworm's Wishlist. I feature bookish gifts for any book lover or that I just want. I am having a great time with it and hope others like it too. Here are some links to the couple I started with

How was your month of April?
Happy birthdays! I’m glad you both had good reading months. I don’t understand how you guys read so much. It must be a superpower. Have an excellent May!

I really liked Future Shock and I'm not a fan of YA or time travel! I've had another rotten month with no real reading progress but maybe my luck will change tonight...*laughs*
