I’ve had some wine and “a serial murder is serially murdering” really got me 😬😂😂

I think 13 books is still absolutely amazing! It’s probably normal to struggle when it comes to reading at a time like this. It hasn’t happened to me reading-wise and in fact I’ve been reading more, but I’ve been struggling so much with uni work, so I guess it fits in the same category! The Eye Of The World, I‘ve heard so many good things about it and I’ve also heard it’s like “important” for fantasy readers, so it was actually good to hear critiques and a different opinion about it!

[BernasBookishAdventures]

I want to read Murderbot series because you praise them so much.
The cats' names really fit their characteristics hehe.

Glad you liked The Last Wish. I had similar feelings about it. I was surprised how many fairytale vibes there were. I expected it to be more epic fantasy for some reason.

I do recommend reading the next short story collection before you watch the show though!! So much of it is spoiled in the show and it does end up tying into the main series plot too. It still has that random stories from Geralt's life feel.

[ginnyvanoh]

I want to read 8 Perfect Murders, but damn, having to read additional works to not be spoiled is a bit daunting!

[MLLatUtube]

I also had a bit of a slump in March. I finally found some nonfiction books that are bringing me out of though, so I trust April will be better.

[krakentoagoodbook]

for the allergies! I can't wait for Girl Gone Viral. One Word Kill was a fun one. I just recently picked up the second and third books in that series. I also read The Last Wish recently (maybe in March? I can't remember. What even is time anymore lol) and enjoyed it. I can't wait for Network Effect! I've been having some struggles with reading with stress from coronavirus and developing vertigo. Let's hope April is better!

I just discovered your channel and... I'm really not trying to be over dramatic but your content is _exactly_ what I've been looking for on YouTube. I adore golden age mysteries and historical romance (Tessa Dare and Courtney Milan woop woop!) You do reviews on both in succinct and engaging ways and just wanted to let you know how hype I am to find your channel and to go through your whole backlog. I've recently been laid off due to the pandemic and am happy to find something to get me through these tough times 💜

[loruffa]

I read both The Count of Monte Cristo and The Lady's Guide to Celestial Mechanics this month because of your read alongs, I wouldn't have read those now(maybe not ever for Monte Cristo) if not for that and I really enjoyed both! I didn't participate much in the discord chat, but I really appreciate it so much. Glad you're enjoying your reading experience of Monte Cristo so far

[lostbookthoughts]

So happy to see your kittens! :) I love the names too. :D

[nanettemccall]

Glad you are doing physically better! I’m definitely on the struggle bus with emotions and it’s destroying my reading mojo. Please stay safe 🙏

[ilrayali]

I have 2 kittens too and one of them looks just like yours! Marple also sounds like she may have a similar personality :)

[wendywesley]

Bathing you cats will help cut down on dander and help with allergies . Kitten hood is the best time to get a cat use to bathing. Good Luck

Honestly, I liked the two prequel short story collections of the Witcher much better than the first in the actual story. I am trying to get motivated to continue myself.

I actually have less time to read - I work for the unemployment office so we have MOUNTAINS of work and they even approved OT.

[skeletonkeybooks]

What adorable kitties! Love the names, too.

I ended up finishing 18 books in March, which is a little high for me. I usually finish somewhere around 10 a month. I'm hoping to be a little more balanced in my activities this month, though. I even created a color-coded habit tracker, which is a bizarre move for me.

[Bluebtfly]

Yay!!! You are sitting!!! Hope u r feeling better!!!! ❤🇨🇦🦋

[LaurensNerdyFunStuff]

I think I've been doing fine reading wise lately. Sometimes I don't feel like reading but once I get started I get in the zone and it helps take my mind off things somewhat.

Also cute kittens, and I hope you have a swift recovery!

[Anndk]

I'm totally struggling. I have read close to same amount of books, but only because I spend a weekend last week reading for the 24in48, but otherwise picking up books have been a struggle.

I hope to read get into that reading mojo, because I have 19 books on my TBR this month - oops.

[vikathy]

Aww... Those cats are so cute. I had an ok reading month. Two 4.5 stars, ( they were Tweet Cute and Magic Binds) which is good for me, but I was struggling a lot. Let's hope April feels better. Hope you get your allergies under control =)

[M_aryAnne]

Glad to see you are feeling better! Good vibes are being sent your way.
