Hello listeners! Welcome to Beyond the Basics with Basic B. I’m Katie your host and today’s episode is Plot Twists and Pitfalls - My March and April Reading Recap.
I have been dropping a reading recap podcast episodes monthly for over a year now but because I decided to take a bit of a social media break I didn’t have the chance to drop an episode for March or April. Never fear because today I’m bringing you a recap that’s fresh and fun.
Today I plan to share the HIGHS and LOWS from the last two months with a few superlatives, my favorite nerdy reading stats, reflections on my reading predictions and my social media break. I’ll also share some personal literary highlights and give you some insight into what’s up next.
A reminder that these episodes are meant to be fun and informative. I don’t edit these podcasts so I excuse any ums, likes, dog barking, rambling or mispronunciations.
Grab a drink or lace up those shoes and pop an earbud in your ear and let’s get chatting about all the books!
