Lots of good, varied reading going on for everyone this month. By the end of the week, I'm hoping to finish "Red Mist" (Kay Scarpetta #19) by Patricia Cornwell; I am listening to it on audiobook and enjoying the narration very much. The most recent ebook I've started is "A Little Life" by Hanya Yanagihara; wish me luck with that one. I'll continue with several others as well as I am resting for the most part over the summer and not exerting myself too much. Stay cool, everyone, and sit in the shade!!

Yes very good. I've added Monument 14 to my tbr list. Two peeps are reading it this month.

For June, I’m reading Margaret George’s 900+ page The Autobiography of Henry VIII: With Notes by His Fool, Will Somers, which I actually started in May. Her research is impressive and the writing is engaging and easy to read. Having the King’s “autobiography” annotated with “notes” from his famous fool was a stroke of genius.

Ha! That's cool. A couple other people wanna read Monument 14 as well. I should bump it up my list and read it after the .
