Plans for July
I love the list of books that I have lined up for July. It includes a lot of prize winners and so I am hoping that the quality will be far better than my June reads. I know I won’t be able to read them all, but I don’t like to limit myself too much.

A Life Apart – Neel Murkherjee
The Piano Teacher – Elfriede Jelinek
How Late it Was, How Late – James Kelman
Before the Fact – Frances Iles
The Day of the Triffids – John Wyndham

The Picture of Dorian Gray – Oscar Wilde
Luke and Jon – Robert Williams
The Book of Negroes – Lawrence Hill
Sweetness in the Belly – Camilla Gibb
