Favorite book in April


In the Forest of Forgetting by Theodora Goss

(I also really enjoyed The Necessary Beggar by Susan Palwick and Palimpsest by Catherynne Valente.)

Im doing very well keeping up with my reading and maintaining balance amongst all the challenges. However, Ive fallen very behind on reviews. (Fortunately I keep some notes and make rough drafts so I hopefully can get caught up.)
