What I’ve Read – August 2017

Sep 1, 2017 | What I've Read

I only managed most of one book this month! I started reading Miss Lily’s Lovely Ladies by Jackie French. It’s nearly finished!

There are a couple of other books I have started and put down, but I wasn’t able to focus on the story, so I have put them aside to start once again when I have a chance.

Right now I am reading in hospital as my son is back again – visit number 3 for the year. This time he’s having a ketamine infusion. If you want to find out more of what is going on, I have a blog at Diary of a Chronic Mum

As well as Miss Lily’s Lovely Ladies, I have a couple of other books in my bag to get my teeth into when I have finished this one.
