April 2009 Reads

May 14, 2009 by Darlene

Well I’m a little late getting this posted but here is my wrap up for April. It was a good reading month for me. My favorites of April were The Lost Hours, The Traitor’s Wife and Mistress of the Sun. Clicking on the links will take you to my reviews if you’re so inclined.

Still Life by Joy Fielding (369 pgs)
The Lost Hours by Karen White (343 pgs)
BoneMan’s Daughters by Ted Dekker (401 pgs)
The Traitor’s Wife by Susan Higginbotham (500 pgs)
Keeper of Light and Dust by Natasha Mostert (307 pgs)
Scattered Leaves by Richard E. Roach (326 pgs)
Mistress of the Sun by Sandra Gulland (381 pgs)
The Scent of Oranges by Joan Zawatzky (375 pgs)
Follow Me by Joanna Scott (420 pgs)
Too Hot to Handle by Robin Kaye (405 pgs)
The Red Leather Diary by Lily Koppel (320 pgs)

I’m hoping May will be the same but I don’t seem quite as inclined to read as I did last month. lol.

    That IS a good month. My April numbers were higher than usual due to the read-a-thon, but I’ve only finished one book so far in May. Hopefully when I finish Middlemarch I’ll be back to actually finishing books again–although I still have at least another week to go for Middlemarch. This is why I don’t like reading longer books–can’t read as many!

    What a great list of books you read in April Dar! You had a productive month! I’ve only read Follow Me from the list and we had similar feelings on this book. I started reading Red Leather Diary but had to put it aside to finish a few other books.

    Way to go! You did some great reading this month! I’m so envious of how you manage to get all your reviews done for the month too – I’m terrible for going on to the next book before writing a review 🙂

    What a good month! I’m fighting the not-inclined-to-read bug as well 🙂

    Thanks everyone for your comments on this post. May is definitely a slower month for me. Maybe it’s because it keeps snowing here. lol. Hopefully I pick up some during the summer.

    Yowza…you put me to shame! I loved, loved Mistress of the Sun and The Traitor’s Wife!

    Here’s to another good month in May!
