DNF: Fever by Dee Shulman

So, as always, I wanted to read more than I did this month... Surprise, surprise ;P I don't expect May and June to be any different because I have my first public exams coming up and I'm planning on revising and doing really well so I don't know how much time I'll get to actually read, but hopefully I won't completely abandon my books :S But I did manage to read more than I did in March so that's good ;P 

My monthly maths:

Number of pages read in April: 3032 (+ 150 of the DNF)
Average number of pages per book: 379

My favourite book of this month, hands down, is...

INSURGENT by Veronica Roth

Insurgent (Divergent, #2)

My review will be posted on the 3rd. 

Here's what I'm most looking forward to reading in May:

Rules of Attraction (Perfect Chemistry, #2)  Black Heart Blue  Struck

And lastly, let me announce who did the most commenting this month! The winner is...

Iffath!

Thanks for commenting Iffath! ;D I had fewer comments than last month... But I also didn't post as much so I guess that's why... Anyway, bye April, hello May (tomorrow...)! :D
