Despite the fact , I found myself in a bit of a reading rut as soon as I graduated college. Did I stop reading altogether? Of course not. But once I was done reading a variety of books for my college courses, I realized .
Now, don't get me wrong, there is a time and place for a good thriller. Between Paula Hawkins's Into the Water and An Anonymous Girl by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, there was no shortage of suspense-filled page-turners I couldn't put down over the last year. But while any type of reading is surely a good thing, I felt the overwhelming need to broaden my horizons, genre-wise. Enter , a company with nearly 100 years of experience - yep, it was founded in 1926! - that caters to readers who are looking for something new. Related: Book of the Month has a fairly straightforward process. After you sign up and load credits onto your profile - you can get charged monthly or purchase a whole year at a clip, if you want! - get busy by perusing the five books of the month. Typically, the books span a variety of genres, ranging from historical and contemporary fiction to books of short stories. That means there are plenty of options, regardless of your preference. Your best bet for a great deal? Signing up for a year at a time, which shakes out to about $9 per month! (Anyone who has purchased a brand-new hardcover book in the last year hopefully doesn't need me to explain how much of a steal that price is.) And FYI: one credit equals one book, so once you select your book of choice, you can either call it quits or add another book to your shipment from dozens of choices beyond the five monthly selections. And here's where it gets interesting: for additional books, you can either use another credit or opt to pay $9.99 per title.
Oh, and if you're not loving the choices for a particular month or have a pretty hefty stack to get through, simply skip that month and save your credits for the future. Easy peasy, right? Now all you need is a fuzzy blanket, a candle, and maybe a little rainy weather to get into full-on reading mode.

If there's anything Marvel fans are well-versed in, it's knowing that their favorite heroes are always in imminent danger. Since Iron Man first graced our screens back in 2008, fans of the Avengers have learned to check out every possibility for death, and prepare themselves for fatalities (RIP, Quicksilver). And even though it felt like was the peak level of devastation that Marvel could reach, there's no doubt we're in for more. The premiere of is in , and apparently the first hour is enough to make Captain America get emotional.
In , actor Chris Evans opened up about seeing the upcoming fourth installment of the Avengers franchise, and he seemed overwhelmed by how good the film actually is. "Uh, it's - I mean - it's a good one," he said. "It's a real good one. I saw, like, the first hour of it."
Obviously, Evans isn't allowed to say much of anything about the film because Marvel has more eyes on their actors than the NSA, but what he did say was enough to get any fan's blood rushing. According to Evans, the first hour of the film (), was enough to get him in his feelings. "Man, this one's really good. I choked up like three times," he said.

Though, we'd imagine that seeing his own character's demise might make Evans a little more than just "choked up."
We'll have to wait until Endgame hits theaters on April 26 to figure out what exactly had Evans all emotional, but that won't stop us from cooking up !
