Fifth Thursday in May

 The month that wouldn't end. 

Struggling to find a book that I want to read. 

This month I have read or started reading (as far as I can remember):

- Keep You Close by Lucie Whitehouse. I love this book, and all of her books before she started her crime series which I'm not that interested in, and I have read this one a few times. She puts a lot into describing place which I enjoy. 

- The Cloisters by Katy Hays. Library book, I enjoyed this. The plot had a bunch of holes and dropped off a bit in the last third, but it was set in a museum and gardens, and I love all that. Would look forward to what she comes out with next. 

- Bellefleur by Joyce Carol Oates. Lent to me by a friend, put down after a few pages. Too many characters and tiny writing, I haven't the patience anymore. 

- Fyneshade by Kate Griffin. Lent to me by a friend, put down a little after half way. The main character whose eyes the story is told through is a horrible, horrible person, and her relationship with the little girl in the story is too uncomfortable to get any enjoyment out of the plot. A Shame because I was enjoying the setting, her writing style and the Secret Garden, mystery vibes. 

- The Glass House by Eve Chase. Library book. Put down after a few chapters because the flipping between different characters and times was too tedious. 

- The Bird Cage by Eve Chase. Library book. persevered with this one because I have put down the last three books and thought I should try and finish something, but it was nothing special, and it did the same thing where each chapter is told through the eyes of a different character, and some are flash backs too. It's just tiring. I liked the setting though.
