It’s APRIL FOOLS DAY and I already fell for a fake news story about Tony Romo heading back to the Dallas Cowboys 🤦🏻‍♀️. What’s the best April Fools prank you’ve heard of or been a part of?!

Midnight at the Wandering Vineyard by Jamie Raintree

I read 3️⃣ books last week.

📚The Girl He Used to Know by Tracey Gervais Graves 4/5

📚The Bookish Life of Nina Hill by Abbi Waxman 4/5

📚The Masterpiece by Fiona Davis 3/5 (Note: I listened to the first 3 hours on audiobook 🎧 but I just couldn’t finish it – the narrators accents were too much. I did try!)

Currently Reading:

I’ve heard good things about this gritty and heartfelt debut and I can tell it’s going to be hard to put down. Good thing it’s Spring Break! ON SALE 4/1/19

“A harrowing debut novel of a tragic disappearance and one sister’s journey through the trauma that has shaped her life.”
