What I thought

First of all, that it was a lot. I mean – 31 books? I still had my job. And I’m doing 40 days of blogging. And tutoring, and cooking, and… Anyways, I don’t remember much of March, but apparently it happened.

Apart from that, one of the things that jumps out the most to me, is the amount of Ann M. Martin on this list. Because, you know – I’ve read the first 20 books from the Baby-Sitters Club-series. Now, that probably helped quite a bit with the whole 31 books, right?

I was also pleasantly surprised by the Joanna Trollope retelling of Sense and Sensibility, and I got sucked into the Crazy Rich Asians-series – I was actually averaging a book a day with that series as well – what’d’ya know. And of course, then there’s Red, White & Royal Blue – which I started and finished twice in the space of 4 days.

All in all, March wasn’t really the most outstanding of reading months. Apart from those last couple of mentions, it was definitely more of a quantity over quality month. Then again – sometimes you just need those months, right?

Anyways, what have you been reading, lately? Be sure to let me know below!
