Rena Reads: April Book Recap
This month, I found myself being much more intentional about the books I’m choosing, especially the ones I’m sharing with my kids.

Rena's Reads
Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas: the 5th of her Throne of Glass series. I am looking forward to continuing this series through the next three books! It is a wonderful escape to another world and reads easily. Drowning in Paper Flowers by E.L. Westbury, this was a psychological thriller, mysterious but not scary. I liked a couple of the twists and the lead character Ruby. For someone who seems like they have it all it’s a good reminder that everyone is dealing with something.
