Welcome to the Monthly Wrap Up hosted by Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction to share our monthly wrap-up posts that summarizes our month in books, our favorite books of the month, what we did on our blogs, and anything noteworthy we want to share.
March 2024 Wrap Up
I only read eight books this month, which isn’t bad at all, but last month I read a whole bunch so I had expected better for this month. I also had a couple of reading slumps, and I was reading a few really dense and thick books. I felt like I was slogging through molasses. Hopefully April will be better!
My March 2024 TBR Intentions
The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell- Fairy Tale by Stephen King
A River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross- A Fire Endless by Rebecca Ross
The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo- Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree
- Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherworlds by Heather Fawcett
Books Read in March 2024
- A River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross
- Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry
- The Bodyguard by Katherine Center
- The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo
- Canadian Boyfriend by Jenny Holiday
- Signal Moon by Kate Quinn
- The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell
- Bear by Marian Engel
Favorite Book This Month
The Fox Wife by Yangsze Choo. The Sparrow was really amazing too and I’d say technically, it’s a better book than The Fox Wife, but it was a much more difficult read emotionally and so for that reason I enjoyed The Fox Wife more.

April 2024 TBR Intentions
I still want to read the books I didn’t get to in March, so I’m bringing them forward. I don’t think I’ll be able to finish all of these in April, but who knows. I should also probably add some nonfiction and classics in there for my reading challenges, but I figure since there are more diverse authors on this list, I could potentially knock out a few for my Diversity reading challenge, and then catch up to the other challenges later.
- The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
- The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie
- A Tempest of Tea by Hafsah Faizal
- Fairy Tale by Stephen King
- A Fire Endless by Rebecca Ross
- Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree
- Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherlands by Heather Fawcett
- The Warm Hands of Ghosts by Katherine Arden
- The Saint of Bright Doors by Vajra Chandrasekera
I’m looking forward to all of these!
How was your month in March? What were your most memorable moments? I hope you have a wonderful April with lots of great books!
When books are larger and more dense then it does take longer to read. All the best with your reading for April. I want to read Bookshops and Bone Dust too, probably not though for a little while.
Thank you! I hope for a better reading month in April too! Enjoy B&B when you get to it!
I have The Sparrow on my tbr for a while.
Have a great April reading month.
Thank you! I hope the same for you!
