May 2016 Reads



Oh May, you were such a fabulous month for me, just not in terms of reading time. I finished my publishing graduate program, got my Master's degree, became co-chair of a prestigious book show, got hired at a cook book publisher, and traveled to Chicago for a week to attend Book Expo America and the BookCon! I am exhausted (and elated) just thinking about it all again. But all that big life stuff left very little time to read. I read 8 books, none of them full-length novels, putting me at 144 books in 2016 (so far).

Novels:
  • NONE!

Graphic Novels:
  1. The Lion (Love #3) by Frédéric Brrémaud, Federico Bertolucci
  2. Breaking Cat News: Cats Reporting on the News that Matters to Cats by Georgia Dunn
  3. I Hate Fairyland, Vol. 1: Madly Ever After by Skottie Young, Jean-François Beaulieu

Illustrated/ Children’s Books
  1. Me and My Cat by Michael Dahl, Zoe Persico
  2. The Farmer and the Clown by Marla Frazee
  3. It's Only Stanley by Jon Agee
  4. I Will Always Be Happy to See You by Ellen Delange, Jenny Meilihove

Other Genres
  1. You Had One Job! by Beverly L. Jenkins

How was your May?

  2. The I Hate Fairyland GN cover is kind of amazing. And I just generally love seeing more graphic novels on book blogs. I don't read many myself but I like to think I will eventually

    1. You should give them a try, Liselle! If done well, they can be just as powerful as novels.
