Hi Ladies!
I did pretty good in May with my reading. Of course I have been staying up super late! That is never good. So, I'm trying hard to turn that around!
The first book I read last month was:
Katherine - by Anya Seton. I give this one 5 stars! I loved it.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/155652532X/qid=1149199314/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/002-4509173-5728040?s=books&v=glance&n=283155
After Katherine, I read:
The Unforgiven, by Patricia Macdonald. This was a great mystery/horror book. I generally don't read them, but this one is really a fast read. 4 stars.

Then, I read Bombshell by Linda Curnyn. Only 3 stars. A chic lit book without very much depth to the main character or storyline.

Next, I finally read a book I've been dying to read: The Kite Runner by Khaled Housseni. 5 stars! Touching book written in wonderful prose. It is sad, but also hopeful.

After that, I read Abigail's Story from the Women of the Bible series. This was an ok read. A quick read but I'm not sure it is as good as the reviews on Amazon say it is! 3 stars from me.

I then started reading "The Bridges of Madison County" -- but decided I wasn't in the mood for a sad romance, so I chucked it in favor of book 6 in the Janet Oke Love Comes Softly series: Love's Unfolding Dream. I love all of these books, whether they are considered "twaddle" or not!

Now I am on to my Yahoo book club's choice for the month of June "The Bone Vault" by Linda Fairstein. I'll be starting this one tonight!

Happy reading everyone!
