The Good: According to Goodreads, I continue to be right on track for my 2013 Reading Challenge. I tried to celebrate National Poetry Month by focusing on poetry books. Did well in the early part of the month then petered out.
The Bad: I read 35 but reviewed only 13 (which is five more than I reviewed in March). I made no progress with my Debut Challenge or Mount TBR Challenge and meh with the Picture Books Challenge.
