Whoa–June already?! I swear I say it every month, but May went by so quickly. I had a great month reading wise, with a whopping total of 14 books read. That is a lot more than usual for me, and part of that total is thanks to a week long vacation where I spent reading by the pool.
Here is what I read.
*The Beautiful Cigar Girl, Daniel Stashower
*What Was She Thinking? Notes on a Scandal, Zoe Heller
*Lady Susan, Jane Austen
*When Will There be Good News?, Kate Atkinson
*Wigs on the Green, Nancy Mitford
*Housekeeping vs the Dirt, Nick Hornby
*Shakespeare Wrote for Money, Nick Hornby
*Lies Chelsea Handler Told Me, Chelsea Handler
*Bumped, Megan McCafferty
*Song for Katya, Kevin Stevens
*Crooked Crooked Letter, Tom Franklin
*Affinity, Sarah Waters
*Summer Sisters, Judy Blume
*Gourmet Rhapsody, Muriel Barbery
I would say that Affinity and Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter were by far my favorites. Oh, and What was She Thinking? Notes on a Scandal. Plus the Nick Hornby books! Hopefully I can keep up my luck and continue choosing really great books to read.
How was May for everyone else?

I had a good May, too (but I don’t post wrap-ups … so hard for me to choose favorites!)
We don’t have any overlaps, although CROOKED LETTER is on my TBR, and I’d like to read more Nick Hornsby.
I hope your June is as prosperous!
What a great month! I’ve got Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter loaded on my ipod… hope to listen to it soon. May was all about Richard Yates for me.
I had a great may ,looks ,like you did as well ,all the best stu
