    June Reading List

    Still a bit behind schedule this month (I think I'm getting worse at posting these things on time, instead of better, for which I apologize). 

    I'm still in catch-up mode with my reading list, so I'm only adding two new short stories this month: 

    A Leaf on the Wind of All Hallows by Diana Gabaldon
    (It was nice to read some of the spin-offs from the main Outlander series, especially the short stories as they enhance the main story I love so well, but are quick reads)

    The Space Between by Diana Gabaldon
    (It's been nice to dive into Diana's work again.  The world she creates with the main Outlander series is so rich and detailed, even in her short stories.  I'm really enjoying reading these side stories while I wait for Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone).

    May Reading List

    So, I'm a little (ok, a LOT) late in getting this out, since it's already practically halfway through the month.  But, I got a little side-tracked with trying to get my next book ready for publishing.  

    Because I'm a little behind on last month's reading list, I'm only going to add one more title for May in order to get myself back on track with my Goodreads challenge.  The honour of this month's book goes to: 

    SPQR by Mary Beard

     - I've wanted to read this now for quite some time as Prof. Beard is a classicist I greatly admire, so I cannot wait to finish my other readings so I can dive into this one.

    March Reading List

    "The Library Book" - Susan Orlean (This one was recommended to me by a friend, and I'm so glad they did!  I've never quite read a book like it before, with its mix of investigative journalism, personal anecdotes, and historical biography.  I would highly recommend it!)   

    "China Rich Girlfriend" - Kevin Kwan (I've been reading this one for awhile now, but I really want to finish it this month because I really like the series)
