Books of My Month: April

With all my stress lately, I wasn't able to read as much as I would have liked to last month. Here's what I did read:


Stop Dressing Your Six-Year-Old Like a Skank by Celia Rivenbark
This book was absolutely hilarious! I breezed through it and the humorous nature was perfect for some study breaks. I definitely want to read more of Rivenbark's books!


Never Sit Down in a Hoopskirt and Other Things I Learned in Southern Belle Hell by Crickett Rumley
I had low expectations for this book. I definitely expected it to be poorly written, trashy chick lit. I was so pleasantly surprised to find sharp wit and a–dare i say it?–almost inspirational story of unexpected friendship in the pages of this book. It's a fun read, but it isn't completely substance free! I really enjoyed it.


The Kennedy Women: The Saga of an American Family by Laurence Leamer
I started reading this book in the middle of finalizing my research paper. Not my best idea. Meaning that while I'm nowhere near finished with this (960 page!) book, I am really loving it. It's opening up a world that I was previously unaware of, and I love that even though it is obviously nonfiction, it's still gripping and enjoyable to read.

What have you been reading?
