Although, March wasn’t a particularly successful month, I’m feeling a lot more hopeful for my future and content with reading once more. I’m determined to manage my reading list this April, having carefully chosen books I’m genuinely excited about and those that have been in my to-read pile for a long time. They’re also some that can be used in my assignment portfolios too, which is a great bonus.
