Spending two weeks in Italy this month did allow for some good reading time - on the plane, by the pool, on the beach, in many cafes! But, still I didn't finish that many books. It made me realize that perhaps I am becoming a slower reader in my old age, or maybe reading a couple longer books! But, it was a good month for reading books I enjoyed, so I am trying to focus more on quality versus quality!
In July, I seem to have a lot of book club books to get through and I'm finding that I need to plan my reading time to ensure that I get it all done! I will have to evaluated whether I like that approach, or whether the "requirements" of book club are feeling too stressful. But, I do like the idea of setting aside time to read that allows me to really dive into a book instead of just catching snippets here and there. We'll see how it all goes!
Books read in June
1. Class by Stephanie Land (Memoir/Book Club/Library)
2. Zero Days by Ruth Ware (Mystery/Shelf)
3. Girl, Woman, Other by Bernadine Evaristo (Fiction/Shelves/Book Club)
4. One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware (Mystery/Shelves)
5. James by Percival Everett (Fiction/Borrowed)
I have a lot of book club reading to do this month, so hoping that will motivate me to get through a few and keep my reading up for the summer!
