While we continue dealing with lockdowns, social distancing and only shopping for groceries once every two weeks, I’m happy to report I’ve managed to be pretty productive during this time.
Actually, I think many people have taken on new hobbies (ahem, looking at you bread bakers), and I’m no exception. I’ve actually started to listen to audiobooks for the first time! It took me awhile to get used to them and there are still times when I will zone out for chapters at a time, but it has been going a lot better than I had ever expected. I’ve been re-visiting some Agatha Christie books in this format and have been enjoying it so much I’ve decided to try and listen to as much of her catalog this year.
Audiobooks are definitely helping me to crush my reading goals as I can listen to them while I do other tasks so I’m able to fit more “reading” time into my schedule.
How about you, dear readers? How have you been coping during this unprecedented time? I hope you’re doing well – I’d love to hear from you! Drop me a comment and let me know how you’ve been coping and what you’re up to!
I managed to read/listen to a whopping FOURTEEN books in April. FOURTEEN! Of course, many of those were in audio format, but I still think they count towards my reading goal.
Here are the books I read in April:
And here are the books I listened to in April:

While I did do much more reading than usual, my blogging sadly didn’t keep pace. I’m hoping to fix that this month so fingers crossed I get back into the blogging groove soon!
