Hi everyone,
It's 1st April and I'm only just getting my TBR up! It is looking like a very busy month, with three buddy reads, two books I want to read for ongoing projects, the #wpplodalong and three amazing readathons!

Lots of channels to mentions, find all their details linked below plus I will list my books for the month (some are only possibilities). Do let me know in the comments what you're planning to read, whether you're also participating in these events and what you think I should read for People April. Thanks for watching.
