Welcome to a brand-new month.
May ended up being a busy time with most of my reading being audiobooks and picture books. I also won a Mother’s Day competition from Walker Books, so most of my picture book reads were the amazing books that I won.
Here are the books that I read:
- The Pickup by Fiona Harris & Mike McLeish – I accidentally picked up book 2 on audiobook first. I’ve seen the TV series and really enjoyed it. I enjoyed this audiobook too.
- Don’t Tell Me What To Do by Renee Connoulty – a brand new picture book by one of my friends. A great book for families dealing with PDA.
- Little Fish and Mummy by Lucy Cousins – a fun board book, one of the books that I won.
- Mums & Mogs by Mick Elliot – a book that I won, and a really fun read. Those mogs have the coolest expressions.
- Well Done, Mummy Penguin by Chris Haughton – another book from the prize pack and a lovely story about a baby penguin waiting for Mummy Penguin to come with dinner.
- You’re the Best, Mum by Charles Fuge – another book in the prize pack and another lovely story about a mum and her baby.
- A Mother is a House by Aurore Petit – another book in the prize pack. This one shows all the different roles mothers have in a beautiful way.
- House of New Beginnings by Lucy Diamond – an audiobook with a story that I really enjoyed. Lucy Diamond has a wonderful skill in telling stories that have a cast of interesting female characters.
- The Patchwork Girls by Elaine Everest – an audiobook set during WW2 that shows a different side to England during the war that I didn’t know much about.
This brings my total on GoodReads to 44 books for the year. Given I had set a goal of 50 books, I may need to adjust this amount!
Did you read any interesting books during May?
