APRIL WRAPUP (aka the month of baseball)


Hi,

April is the month of MLB regular season and I am obsessed! Shame me but I just started watching this and I feel so invested. I'm fairly familiar with the game (special thanks to anime. lol) but entirely new to watching MLB which is actually really exciting! Also, generic me is rooting for the Yankees (and also lowkey rooting for the Brewers on the NL).

We're three weeks into May and I've just gotten deeper into baseball that my reading time had to be cut down so that I can tune in to my teams' games, read through news updates, and watch all the game recaps (which is an insane thing to do). But come the end of the season, I'll probably be done with this thing. I think? idk.

On other things, I was surprised that I actually got into 3 books this month. With a slump coming at me because of Gerald's Game which I tried reading in the 2nd or 3rd week of the month and held off to read the Death Note spin-off which worked out fine for me. So for now, I'll be putting Gerald's Game down and pick up a different book to get my reading numbers up and my reading mood back.

I know this post is like THREE FREAKING WEEKS LATE! But who cares at this point? All these drafted posts on my blog are almost done and I'm still not done reading anything since this wrapup. I might end up not finishing a book in May. Oh look, it's the 22nd and I've read ZERO books so far. Send help!


books read



The Gone World was a really good time travel novel recommended and given to me by my bestfriend 💖 One Day in December is a really cute and quick read. LOVED it!!! Death Note: Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases is an interesting spin-off to the Death Note series (minus the cringe victim/character names). The twist was nice and the mystery as a whole was really good.

books hauled

none

I'm so glad I didn't haul anything this month. Actually, I didn't expect myself to actually not get any books. May is another month though (but really, I've been nice).
