April has been a fab bookish month. I read 5 books and listened to 4 audiobooks making a grand total of 9. It’s not as many books as I would’ve liked, but it could’ve been a lot worse. 🤷♀️

Sounds like a solid bookish month to me! Especially with that fantastic bookish travel… I might have to add Free Ride for the amount of countries it visits alone. 😉
