April 2024 Most Anticipated

April is coming up fast, and it’s bringing some awesome books with it. I cannot contain my excitement for so many of the books listed below and it was a struggle to narrow my list down to my top 12. Of my top 12, I have copies of half, and have read both The Gathering and Just for the Summer. I’m also currently listening to Darling Girls and hoping to start The Fellowship of Puzzle Makers, Indian Burial Ground, and Nosy Neighbors within the next week!

I adore Abby Jimenez’ books, and Just for the Summer was no exception. I didn’t love it as much as Part of Your World (REVIEW) or Yours Truly (REVIEW) but it was still a fantastic read!

Just for the Summer Review

If you haven’t read a C.J. Tudor book and you enjoy gritty, atmospheric mysteries you’re missing out. The Gathering was her best book so far and I loved it.

The Gathering Review

Sally Hepworth is another autobuy author for me and Darling Girls just may be one of my favorite reads from her yet.

For a fun cozy mystery, Nosy Neighbors is a heartwarming story about community and family.

Nosy Neighbors review

For a fast paced thriller Jeneva Rose’s newest release is a perfect fit.
