It lowkey sucks that the only thing I'm consistent with on the blog now is the monthly literary conversation. I'm however trying hard to not dwell too much on this sad fact. Anyway, happy new month to you! April was a fun month. I was really hoping for a better month because like I said HERE , March wasn't all that good. Well, I guess I got that. On the school front, I finally resumed after about 8 months of being away from school because of my 6 months industrial training. I'm in my final year now and I'm mentally trying to prepare for all of the inevitable stress and working on how I won't let myself be overwhelmed. You should already guess that resuming means I have less time to spend on my reading but I still read almost all of it. 1. Stay With Me - Ayobami Adebayo If you follow me on Instagram ( Right here ) , then you would have seen me put up a picture of this book and a picture of this book and myself. I think I talked about it so much that ...

I love and enjoy reading and this year, I decided to read with more intent. Much more than the knowledge gained, the vocabulary that becomes expanded and the numerous places I travel to from reading books, I decided to actually journal about my reading activities this year and also write out lessons learnt from each book. I read at a pace of one book a week so that should be about 4 books a month except when a book has too many pages and I have to go through it in two weeks. I actually belong to a book club but because I already had a book I wanted to start the year with, I couldn't follow the reading schedule from the onset of the month so I decided to just freestyle it for the month of January. The books I read are 1. You Have A Brain - Dr Ben Carson 2. Adored - Tilly Bagshawe 3. Small Great Things - Jodi Picoult 4. The Great Gatsby -  - F. Scott Fitzgerald      To Kill A Mockingbird  - Harper Lee     The Tumour - John Grisham   ...
