Month in Review: April 2017

We've been busy Weres this month! We've also been rather ecclectic in our reading tastes - graphic novels, YA contemps, romantic suspense, and some of our urban fantasy faves. There's something for everyone this month.

Reading Challenge Update

I'd been slacking on my Rock My TBR challenge for the first few months of the year, saving my TBR read until the last minute. This month I finally got out ahead of it.

I've had some of Jennifer Ashley's Shifters Unbound novellas that I got for free hanging around for a while, but in April I read them all. I haven't read any of the full length books in the series yet, but my interest is peaked. The shifters in this world are out to the public, but segregated from the human population and forced to wear collars to control their animal sides. It's just a little bit dystopian and so fascinating.
