Gah! How can I chose this month. I'll have to say Plain Kate but that might be because it's the one freshest in my mind.
Biggest Disappointment
Grave Witch
TBR Update and New Books
What a great month for books! I actually had some free time this month (even took a little vacation time) which allowed me to read quite a few books. I've also reached a balance with my TBR pile. I've put twenty-two books into the TBR, but I've removed just as many. Let's see if I can keep that up. Here are my acquisitions for April:
