What I’ve Read – May 2017

Jun 1, 2017 | What I've Read

May started off with a new novel by Hayley Solich, Ready: Charlotte. This was the realisation of a dream of hers and she wrote the first draft during NaNoWriMo last year. The rest of the trilogy will be coming soon.

I also finished How to Write Short Kindle Romance Books, and read Where’s My Sandwich by Michelle Dennise.

A few days ago, I started reading View from a Barred Window by Katharina Fares. Katharina goes to the Writer’s Group run by my local library. I’m finding it fascinating so far, a snapshot of history I knew nothing about.

There wasn’t much reading this month, hopefully there will be more reading next month.
