I have big reading plans for April. I want to finish thirty books this month, several of which are graphic novels or poetry collections that I want to get to. For funsies, I set myself a ridiculously high Goodreads yearly goal of 225 books, and I fully intend to reach it. I got a bit off track in March due to getting sick for over a week, but now that I’m well again, it’s time to start reading fiendishly again!
This TBR isn’t everything I want to read in April, but these books are ones that I definitely want to get to. For the rest of what I read this month, I’m going to choose based on my mood at the time.
Currently Reading
I’m currently reading three books that I started in March and will be finishing this month:
- Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
- Becoming by Michelle Obama
- Everybody Writes by Ann Handley
National Poetry Month
April is National Poetry Month, and as such, it’ll be a great opportunity to explore a genre I’m not very familiar with. Here are the poetry collections I’d like to read this month:
- Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson
- Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
- Turtle Island by Gary Snyder
- The Princess Saves Herself in This One by Amanda Lovelace
- Winter Hours by Mary Oliver
- Kingdom Animalia by Aracelis Girmay
Comics & Graphic Novels
I also have a few graphic novels and comic book series I want to read or re-read:
- Magic Bullets by John Barber
- All New Wolverine Vol 1, Vol 2, Vol 3, Vol 4, Vol 5, & Vol 6 by Tom Taylor
- Saga Book One by Brian K. Vaughan
Novels
Then, of course, we have the novels:
- Oathbringer (The Stormlight Archive #3) by Brandon Sanderson
- Q-In-Law (Star Trek: The Next Generation #18) by Peter David
- Gingerbread by Helen Oyeyemi
- Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan
I read becoming and honey and milk, good luck for your reading month.

I loooove Saga!! I was just thinking of buying the collection but decided to wait. I got Rat Queens instead, because I too have been in a graphic novel mood. Also super looking forward to your review on Becoming! ❤
