Considering how I’ve been feeling this month, I was surprised at how many books I read this month (although I did note that the page count was down from March, so I must have read shorter books this month). There were also two I skimmed very quickly to pick up the major plot points without reading the whole story, that that bumped things up too. All the same, I’m very pleased with myself. Still now reviews though, I’m sorry. I will try to get one done on Many Waters in the next few days since that’s for a specific challenge.

OK, that's a great month of reading IMHO! And Silver Borne is a 10/10 read? I must read it, which considering my TBR stressors ATM is insane!
All the best for May :)
Hiya! Followed you from Orannia's blog :)
Nice list! Question: have you seen the movie for Howl's Moving Castle? If so, which is better?
I get you on the Lora Leigh... you really have to space those books out and REALLY be in the mood, otherwise they're a bit much. I think the earlier books too, were a bit over the top with the "alpha" male stuff. I burned myself out on her stuff, not as big a fan as I used to be.
