Danielle and Jessie's Bookish Bingo Wrap-Up

Winter is finally over! That's probably far better news for the blogger in Ohio than the one in Phoenix, but regardless. With the beginning of April comes a new Bookish Bingo, and a time to say goodbye to the old one. Jess and I both did AMAZING this time around, (four Bingos on her first card and I was able to clear the board!) I love participating and opening myself up to new books. Of the 31 books I've read in 2015, 9 of them wouldn't have been on my radar without Bingo. So let's round these up! - D
