So, I didn’t read as much in May as I have in the last few months, I only managed 5 books. I think it is because I read a classic and they usually take me longer to get through than other books for some reason. There was a reasonable genre mix in May though and even a non-fiction book which is very unusual for me!
I have managed to keep up with reviewing everything, the links are below.
Book Review- Breakfast at Tiffany’s 4/5
Book Review- Emma 3.75/5
Book Review- Bodies of Light 5/5
Book Review- The Leavers 3.75/5
Unfortunately I did also finally decide to give up and DNF a book at the beginning of May which is pretty rare for me, though I really should do it more. The “not a review” of that book is one of my most popular posts for some reason!
Not (exactly) a book review! The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet
Hopefully I will manage to read a bit more in June! I am ahead on my Goodreads target anyway but the target is quite conservative.
Classics always take me a lot longer to finish as well so I can definitely relate. I really should pick up an Austen novel some time in the future… Happy reading and happy June!

There are a few more classics I want to read but I think I’m going to spread them out as they slow me down!

I am like you and Yvonne, it takes me pretty long to get through classics. I like your mix of books. I was supposed to read The Leavers in May but never got the chance to. Glad to see that you gave it a good rating.
Have a wonderful month and happy reading 🙂

The Leavers was pretty interesting, you should read it when you can!

I’m currently in the middle of reading that same Penguin Threads edition of Emma! So far it’s not my favorite Austen novel, but I’m still enjoying it. Happy June!
