May 2016 Newsletter
(subscribe in the box to the right)
Welcome to May – and I have to say it was a disappointing reading month for me. Not sure why – some months I find I’m able to read 10+ books and just cram them in and other months I just struggle to find the time.
The month started off fine. I read The Blade Artist by Irvine Welsh. If you were a fan of Francis Begbie I’d recommend it. Really great book.
Then after reading Blake Crouch’s Wayward Pines series I wanted to read more by Blake Crouch. I ended up reading a standalone novel Abandon(it was okay) and the first novel in the Andrew Z. Thomas series, Desert Places. One of those books that are pretty rough but go at such a fast paced you can’t help but enjoy it. (more…)
