April may have brought the rain, but it also brought a fresh batch of books for the No Chapter Left Behind Book Club! Whether you dove into a stormy story or picked up something soft and sweet with a pastel cover, our shelves (and TBR piles) got some much-needed attention.
Each month, members read from their own collections—no pressure, just progress—with the option to follow a fun theme for a little extra motivation. This month’s themes were:
🌧️ April Showers – From crashing waves to gentle rainstorms, these books brought the waterworks (in the best way).
🎨 Pastel Pages – We judged some covers—in a good way—and picked books with pastel colored covers.
Keep scrolling to see what our members read this month (and a few thoughts about the books!)—and maybe find your next book pick!
Interesting book and characters. Story about flying through monsoons in Burma during WW2. Tragic story of heroic efforts and the brutality of war that ultimately had very little impact on the final outcome of the conflict.
3 out of 5!
Historical fiction set during WWII – paths cross between a BBC radio correspondent and a woman searching for missing child.
Very entertaining read, though some decisions made in the book seemed a bit implausible.
Enjoyed it! A fast-paced crime novel set in rural Ohio.
Be sure to check back next month to see what we’ve read in May—or better yet, join the No Chapter Left Behind Book Club and be part of the fun!
Pick a book, follow the themes (or not!), and enjoy the journey with fellow book lovers. Remember – every finished book is a win!
