Anything Goes discussion

Ok time, Time for June nominations. What would you like to be sitting in your sunny garden reading?

Please nominate and post here your suggestions for June Book of the Month and / or a themed read. I will poll 1st May

Thanks
Chris

I nominate The Speed of Dark, a collection of 27 strangely different and disturbing short horror stories by 19 talented authors from around the world.

And believe me when I tell you a sunny garden is the perfect place to read these incredible stories.

Looks interesting................

There are several books of this name, but I'm assuming you are referring to; The Speed of Dark, .

You are correct in your assumption, sir.

ha-ha I'm Christine, not been called sir before. You're forgiven though, regulars to the group will know I have a soft spot for ghost stories!

My sincere apologies. This is what happens when one makes assumptions. Take care.

How to Be Good, , by Nick Hornby was a late May entry by Mark so I'm adding it here for nomination, however, if there are any others, please post here this week.
Huge thanks

We have another tie for June, How to Be Good, or
Sleepwalking,
Go for whichever appeals to you, or both!

I'm about 95 pages in to Sleepwalking and it's incredibly well written. I love it. I didn’t think the subject would sit that well, who would, a woman beginning an affair at 8 months pregnant (not a spoiler, it’s in the blurb). It’s a ghost story too and I’m always a sucker for a ghost story.

I recently finished Sleepwalking and although for me it started well, it didn't quite meet the expectation or it's potential. I liked the down to earth style, definitely no romantic or flowery language.
