I had great intentions for reading in May — but between an increase in work hours (a good thing!), managing my daughter’s t-ball team, and attempting some semblance of keeping my house clean and dinner on the table — I was too wiped most nights to stay up past midnight reading, which is my usual method for finishing a lot of books.
So, only five this month, but it was a nice mix of genres, and I’d recommend four of them, so that counts for something.
And, since it’s June and Father’s Day is almost here, I also created a list of book recommendations for the father figure in your life, so check it out for gift ideas.
