April marked the end of one of my favorite annual events, Fairy Tale Fortnight.
After that, I decided to read whatever I wanted when I wasn't reading tour books so that I didn't burn out on ARCs, etc. I actually wound up reading a lot of contemporary; I got into the groove after reading HOW I LOST YOU. Only now am I am swerving back toward fantasy!
The groove was great, though, because it inspired an upcoming week-long event, which will have a banner go live this week!
Come back May 19th ~ 25th for a week of Girls in Sports!
