So … I fail (a little) my April TBR game, but I have an excuse! At the beginning of the month, everything was great; I read many pages per day and went through most of my books. However, on the 23rd, I started to watch one of my most anticipated series on Netflix: Shadow and Bone. How do I explain it? I couldn’t read any other books as I was totally immersed in the Grishaverse. Even days after watching the tv shows, I couldn’t stop thinking about it (and Instagram doesn’t help.)
Before the show’s release, I already started the last two books of my TBR game, but couldn’t finish them, so they are my priority for next month Olympus TBR game.
Here some stats:
I still didn’t have any bonus card, as I didn’t finish the book corresponding to it in April.
Here is the book I read during April with their prompts (if there is one). If you want to read a book’s review, you just need to click on the (x).
OLYMPUS TBR
“Passe-moi le champagne, j’ai un chat dans la gorge” by Loïc Prigent (published by Grasset)
Rating: None
I draw this book as I fall on “Half-god”. There won’t be any review for this book as it’s 1) in French and 2) a collection of quotes from people of the fashion world.
(x) The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan (published by Puffin)
Rating: 4/5
It’s an Ares card, and the prompt was to read a book from a male author.

This is my second “Half-god” book, I didn’t choose to read it, but I was happy.

This book is a Hephaestus card, and it was a sci-fi book.

I was so happy to fall on START to choose any book on my shelves. Did I spend one week reading a duology? Totally! The first cross is my review without spoilers, and the second it’s the review but with spoilers.
DIDN’T FINISHED
- You and Me On Vacation by Emily Henry (Monster card)
- Firekeeper’s Daughter by Angeline Boulley (Hera card)
And you which books did you read for this month?
Liz.
