Hello Hello Hello and welcome to the April Monthly Wrap Up episode! This month’s reading list was chaotic in the best way. From monster romance and morally gray vampires to dystopian nostalgia and small-town charm, we ran the full emotional gauntlet—and maybe lost our minds along the way. Join us as we break down the spice, the tropes, and the tears with our signature unhinged energy.
