April TBR (2022)

 Hey guys, this is Abi here, 

And it's April (spring is here at last, and with that comes snow), and honestly, I have a few books lined up for the month but I have a very big re-read that might last me a couple of months to say the least. 

Here's what I plan to read this month. I hope you enjoy it. 

1. The Exact Opposite of Okay (Izzy O' Neill #1), by Laura Steven 

2. A Girl Called Shameless (Izzy O' Neill #2), by Laura Steven 

Never mind it's been on my "Want to read" shelf for years, it's the first book I put on said list. I just finished book 1 this afternoon, but I'm still including it in this post because I genuinely didn't think I'd finish it this quickly. 

The Exact Opposite of Okay is about Izzy- budding screenwriter, and slut-extroadinare, apparently. When a hate blog with photos of her and a politician's song doing the dirty, her life suddenly becomes one huge scandal. Izzy's never been ashamed of herself, but keeping her head above it all will take everything she has. 

I loved the first book and can't wait to delve into the second!

3. All Boys Aren't Blue, by George M. Johnson 

I figured, before starting my re-read, and with no books that I haven't read, I'd pick up another "Want to Read" book, because why not? 

All Boys Aren't Blue is a memoir that got a lot of hype around the time of it's release. It's about George M. Johnson as he shares his memories of what it's like to grow up black and queer in the US. I love the cover, it's beautiful, it's a literal painting, and it's a memoir which I don't think I've read before in my life. 

4. Skulduggery Pleasant (Skulduggery Pleasant #1), by Derek Landy 

5. Playing With Fire (Skulduggery Pleasant #2), by Derek Landy 

6. The Faceless Ones (Skulduggery Pleasant #3), by Derek Landy 

7. Dark Days (Skulduggery Pleasant #4), by Derek Landy 

 


As shown in my Anticipated Releases (April- June 2022) post, the 15th and final Skulduggery Pleasant book came out 0n 01/04/22, and as it's the last book that will ever be released, I thought it fitting to give the series I've loved for over a decade a proper send off. I've met Derek Landy, the man is an absolute gem, and so are his books. 

It'll be wonderful to go back to this world, especially these earlier ones: they're short, fast-paced, and it doesn't matter how many times I've re-read them, or how long it's been, it feels like home to return to this world I love so much. 

Okay! Those are the books that I'm going to be reading this month! 

As always, feel free to comment what you're reading this month, and we can chat about them in the comments below! 

I hope you have a wonderful day and I'll see you soon! 

Byeeee!
