April Wrap-Up – The best reading month of the year so far…

Posted May 2, 2023 by Emma in 2023 Books, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, UKYA, Wrap-Up, YA / 0 Comments

Good evening bookworms. It’s May and finally the sun is shining here in the UK. Are we finally getting our spring weather? I really hope so, makes us feel so much better, I do love the warmer months.

So this is my first wrap up of the year… it’s been a unusual start to the year with being quite unwell for half of it, work taking over my life and not really reading at all. But this April I have prioritised my well-being, my mental health and that in turn means I read loads more. Woohoo. May it continue… get it. Haha.

This month I have also been using a new book tracker app, perfect for mood reading, for the aesthetic book lovers, creator of book collections and templates for socials automatically created. This amazing app is called Uncover and I will share some screen shots of how I have been using it.

The Uncover Book App

As I mentioned I’ve been using a new book app all month. I loved using it and even more so when I borrowed my mums old phone to get a true perspective of it! Uncover is only available on Android and Play store but I really want it on IOS! It’s aesthetically gorgeous, the inner creative in me loves this. Creating collections of my favourite books for example ‘Social Media in YA’, see second pic. I have even put a May TBR on there so check it out or head on to my stories to see what I’ve picked. Comment on others and bring a reading community together. It’s simple but effective. It really focuses on the mood of reading.

There is more to say but head over to instagram to follow my journey with the app and if you have an Android device, then download it here. This is a Paid Sponsorship but I would highly recommend this app and my plea is to get it to IOS.

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, THAT’S MY APRIL WRAP UP. HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT. TELL ME WHAT BOOK YOU ENJOYED IN APRIL!?
