BOOKS READ IN MAY







I had another great reading month in May. I read 12 books, partly because more of the books were short. The shortest was a picture book! I kept to my resolution to read one 1963 book each week so next month I will finish the top ten bestseller section of that list and move on to the award winners.

Stats: 12 books read. 12 fiction, 5 by women, 4 for My Big Fat Reading Project, 1 translated.

My favorites were Outline, The Wonder, Little Nothing, and Dreaming in Cuban.
Least favorite was Bad Sex.

    1. Oh my yes, Purity is long! But good that you squeezed it in. I wonder what you will think about Outline.
