I’ve had quite a good month reading, though three of the eleven books I read were novellas. One was also a re-read. The book club book for this month was ‘The Vanishing Half’ by Brit Bennett. I’ve been a bit ill this month which possibly explains the larger number of books read, and the shorter books as well.
