March 2015: The Big Picture
Hey guys! April 1st YAY! It's also my birthday, actually. Yup. I was born on April Fool's Day. Anyway, March has been a pretty good month for me. I read some really AWESOME books and started some new things I'm excited about. This being one of them. This is my first monthly wrap-up post I've done, but I think it'll be a good way to really pull together everything that's happened this month.
Reviews
I read some super fabulous books this month, and am really happy overall with everything I've read.
1) Count of Monte Cristo, The
A very interesting way of putting a spin on your average fairytale, but drags on a bit in the beginning.
3 kisses!
3) When I Was the Greatest
A charming classic with satirical humor and great characters.
4 kisses!
6) A Thousand Pieces of You
A very interesting idea, but confusing to follow.
4 kisses!
7)And Then There Were None
A cute story with a great narrator, but we've seen the concept before.
4 kisses!

An AMAZING classic that really got my head spinning, but was also decently easy to get through. 4 kisses!
2) Into the WildA very interesting way of putting a spin on your average fairytale, but drags on a bit in the beginning.
3 kisses!
3) When I Was the Greatest
A beautiful coming-of-age story, with phenomenal voice, characters, and relationships between said characters. Recommend it for more gritty contemporary fans.
5 kisses!
4) I'll Give You The Sun
A riveting, heart-wrenching, heart-breaking-and-then-puts-it-back-together novel. Might be the best one I've read so far this year.
Beat My Scale!
5) Pride and PrejudiceA charming classic with satirical humor and great characters.
4 kisses!
6) A Thousand Pieces of You
A very interesting idea, but confusing to follow.
4 kisses!
7)And Then There Were None
An AMAZING thriller that, and I will quote my friend Claire from Cover to Cover, "EVERYONE MUST READ. EVERYONE."
Beat My Scale!
8) PopularA cute story with a great narrator, but we've seen the concept before.

Talkin' About
On the blog, we discussed buying books and how freakishly expensive they are, and also I started a new idea for collab reviewing, where I would read a book together with another blogger and we would do a collab review. I'm super excited to have those out...
Goals for April
I need need need to get back in my habit of commenting back. I was great at it for a while..and then I just kinda slumped.
I am super busy this entire month, but I hope to get out a lot of reviews, and hopefully a few discussion posts. What are some things you want to see or discuss?
I'm so sorry to all the amazing bloggers that check out my blog. I usually make it a habit of going and following and regularly commenting on yours, but I have been slacking...a lot.
And of course, I hope to collab read!
Awesome! How was your month of March?
