As the exams concluded in March, I found myself with a lot of free time, and what better way to fill it than with some incredible reads? This month, I finished six books and had a blast exploring their unique narratives and heartwarming (or chilling) stories.

Bookshelf Highlights

One of the most anticipated books of recent times, The Girl on the Train delves into the depths of a psychological thriller.

3. Angus Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging by Louis Rennison

A bit of a random pick at a book fair, Angus Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging turned out to be an okay read. While some parts felt quite childish, others provided a comedic and light-hearted escape. It's a quirky little story that might appeal to those who enjoy slightly offbeat humor and tales.
