June has been quite a slow reading month for me. After reading the outstanding book, HHhH, everything else seems poor in comparison. I’ve abandoned almost everything I’ve started and have been unable to concentrate on a single book for any length of time as nothing is engaging enough. Hopefully I’ll find another gem soon and get back on track.
Book of the Month
Books Reviewed in June:
Little Princes by Conor Grennan
The Book of Answers by C. Y. Gopinath
Half-Sick of Shadows by David Logan
The Carhullan Army by Sarah Hall
In the Name of Love by Katie Price
Plans for July
The Booker longlist is announced on 25th July so I plan to try a few of the contenders and then come up with my prediction for the longlist.
I also plan to take part in Winstonsdad’s Spanish Literature Month by finishing The Hand of Fatima by Ildefonso Falcones and reading The Seamstress by Maria Duenas.
I also hope to read most of these books:
The Watch by Joydeep Roy-Bhattacharya
Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo
