All the March Stats

I’m very overdue on my reading updates, so get ready for some long posts.

I did not create a TBR for March or April, so these will just be the stats for what I actually read.

**links open to Goodreads**

My reads and ratings:

Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas, 4 stars

The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels by Janice Hallett, 5 stars

Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas, 5 stars

And that was it. I think January’s success may have put me into a mini-slump. Not to mention, work and like really piled on.

March Books Acquired:

Tower of Dawn by Sarah J. Maas (this was the last SJM book that I needed to purchase. I now have all of her published works.)

Book I’m still thinking about: Heir of Fire. This book really feels like the tipping point for the entire series and this is the second time that I have attempted to read this book and I’m glad I didn’t get distracted this time.
