Monthly Reading Total: 10 - This was a tough reading month. The weather was terrible which triggered a ton of migraines which tanked my reading. As well, I've been in a bit of a slump with audio books. I have a lot of books that are half finished though so I'm hoping June will be a much better month.
Type:
Print: 5
Ebook: 2
Audio: 3
Genre:
Mystery - 5
Fiction - 4
Nonfiction - 1
Favorite Books of the Month:
First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston - This was my favorite audio of the month. It was a solid 4 star read (probably a 4.25). I found the plot entertaining and compelling and I really enjoyed the listening experience.
Mrs. Jeffries on the Trail by Emily Brightwell - This was my favorite print book of the month. It's got a bit of a classic mystery feel and I really enjoyed the juxtaposition of upstairs/downstairs and who knows what. Also, the mystery was just a solid one.
Rereads: Only one in May - The Labours of Hercules by Agatha Christie. I really enjoyed this one and it's one where I really feel like Christie's enjoyment of the plot and the writing comes through
Monthly Armchair Bookish Travel:
Domestic Travel - I only visited 2 states this month. I visited Louisiana for the first time this year and had a revisit to New York.
International Travel - This month I only visited England though I did visit 5 times.
Other than that, I had 2 fantasy books and 1 nonfiction (though that one did take place in England).
How was your reading in May? Where did your books take you?
