So we are already halfway into April, and while this post will include my updated list, I'm ALSO going to go ahead and list things out as they stand right now because that will save me time and effort  when the month is over (and I will hopefully not be so far behind on things at the end of the month. With all that being said, here is where I stand for things right now.

It's becoming pretty clear that I need an intervention of some sort. My lists, all of them, are getting wildly out of control. I added 20 new books this month if you don't count any of my proofreads (and I've already read a few of those) and there is no way I will read that many books this month (and most of what I will read will be proofreads and audiobooks which I don't even list until I'm reading them or have finished them). Someone please teach me the art of self-restraint. - Katie
