Around the Blogosphere:
I actually have two posts from Amber @ The Literary Phoenix that I want to share! The first is all about Audiobooks, and the second is why it’s time to stop judging people for the way they treat their books!
In her February wrap up post Daniela @ Bookiverse explains what Metafiction is. I had never hear of it before, but I love it!
Metafiction: Self-conscious fiction, in a nutshell. These unconventional books explore every aspect of the fictional genre–its devices, its relation to reality, even the experience of reading itself. Common methods include characters who realize that they exist in a novel, footnotes that reflect and interact with the novel as it progresses, etc.
Aurora @ Aurora Librialis wrote a post explaining the six reasons she will follow your blog and I totally agree with them!
Sarah @ Written Word Worlds gives tips on how to get over a fictional death, and I think she has some great ideas that we can all use!

I’m so glad March was such an awesome reading month for you 😊 I read Grave Mercy and Dark Triumph this month and I loved both a lot, I’m really excited to continue reading this series. And I need to check out the Parasol Protectorate series asap, it sounds so fun! Thank you so much for sharing my posts, that’s so sweet of you ❤️ And I look forward to hearing what you think of Hunted, it’s one of my faves.

Yay for a great reading month! I feel you about the tbr. I’ve started keeping a “to read soon” tbr, in addition to the general out of control tbr, but I just keep adding to the list and reading books that aren’t on the list lol.
