April was a month filled with great reads. From cozy mysteries to horror, from sci fi to historical fiction, from ebooks to physical copies to audiobooks, from ARCs and review copies to Read Christie 2026 and the A-Z Cozy Mystery Challenge, I read my way through murders and mysteries, celebrated Terry Pratchett Day and joined NetGalley.
