Hello everyone and welcome back to the blog! I hope you’re all feeling well. My allergies came back, and I won’t stop sneezing. It’s spring season again! YAY! Why did I have to be allergic against pollen?

Today I am back with my monthly wrap-up and oh hell we’re in April already. Help!

And now without further ado, let’s start with this post.

📚- #1 – A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J.Maas | Paperback | Bloomsbury Publishing | 768 pages | 5 bookish stars | Review

Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she’s struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Worse, she can’t seem to move past the horrors of the war with Hybern and all she lost in it.

The one person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred warrior whose position in Rhysand and Feyre’s Night Court keeps him constantly in Nesta’s orbit. But her temper isn’t the only thing Cassian ignites. The fire between them is undeniable, and only burns hotter as they are forced into close quarters with each other.

Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. And the key to halting them might very well rely on Cassian and Nesta facing their haunting pasts.

Against the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance-and healing-in each other’s arms. 

📚 – #2 – Danger in Numbers by Heather Graham | ebook* | MIRA Books | 400 pages | 4 bookish stars | Review

On the edge of the Everglades, an eerie crime scene sets off an investigation that sends two agents deep into a world of corrupted faith, greed and deadly secrets.

A ritualistic murder on the side of a remote road brings in the Florida state police. Special Agent Amy Larson has never seen worse, and there are indications that this killing could be just the beginning. The crime draws the attention of the FBI in the form of Special Agent Hunter Forrest, a man with insider knowledge of how violent cults operate, and a man who might never be able to escape his own past.

The rural community is devastated by the death in their midst, but people know more than they are saying. As Amy and Hunter join forces, every lead takes them further into the twisted beliefs of a dangerous group that will stop at nothing to see their will done.

Doomsday preppers and small-town secrets collide in this sultry, twisty page-turning thriller.

📚 – #3 – Dein Erster Blick für immer (English title: The Note) by Zoë Folbigg | German | ebook* | Bastei Lübbe | 385 pages | 3 bookish stars | Review

The note changed everything… 

One very ordinary day, Maya Flowers sees a new commuter board her train to London, and suddenly the day isn’t ordinary at all. Maya knows immediately and irrevocably, that he is The One. 

But the beautiful man on the train always has his head in a book and never seems to notice Maya sitting just down the carriage from him every day. Eventually, though, inspired by a very wise friend, Maya plucks up the courage to give the stranger a note asking him out for a drink. Afterall, what’s the worst that can happen? 

And so begins a story of sliding doors, missed opportunities and finding happiness where you least expect it. 

Based on the author’s true story, The Note is an uplifting, life-affirming reminder that taking a chance can change everything…

📚 – #5 – The Ticklemore Tattler by Liz Davies | ebook* | Lilac Tree Books | 272 pages | 4 bookish stars | Review

Sometimes you have to write your own future…
The life of former journalist Juliette Seymour has been quiet and unassuming. Up until now, she’s been concentrating on running the local newspaper and raising her daughter.

But all that is about to change when Juliette is informed that the Ticklemore Tattler is to fold and that she’ll be out of a job. She begins to wonder whether she can buy the newspaper and try to make a go of it herself.

Aware that she needs some advice she contacts Oliver Pascoe, little knowing that when her old colleague re-enters her life, his help isn’t the only thing she wants him for!

As she begins to fall in love, however, what she doesn’t realise is that Oliver has something he’s keeping from her. 

In total, I’ve read 5 books which isn’t that bad, considering that my reading slump is still not over. How about your month? Please let me know in the comments below.
