The May Roundup - lots of reading and a few tornadoes

Weather woes

The Woman Upstairs by Claire Messud

The Rachel Incident by Caroline O'Donoghue

The Will by Rebecca Reid


May book travel took me to Boston, Panama, Barbados, Norfolk, London and Cork Ireland.

That's it for the May round up.   Looking forward to good reading in June and may link up with The Twenty Books of Summer hosted at 746 Books. 

Thanks to Susan at The Cue Card for the inspiration to join in.  It has been fun starting my list so we will see how dedicated I can be.

 Hope life is good for you all :-)
