In a Nutshell - April-May 2013

Wow! Every Flavour Books is already over a month old! Each month I'm going to summarize what I've posted and what books I've read (inspired by Jamie's Monthly Rewind posts at The Perpetual Page-Turner). Here's my first In a Nutshell post, recapping what happened on this blog in April-May.

I read really good books in April-May, as you can see! A short while before I started this blog, though, I read a book I didn't like that much (but didn't hate either!), Anna Dressed in Blood, just in case you're thinking that I love everything I read... ;) However, I have to admit that sometimes I feel like I should give positive reviews to all books - but I'm working on combining honesty, critique and a sense of appreciation of the author's hard work in my reviews because I think that's fair. I suppose I'll figure it out gradually!
