Book time.
Note - I discovered so many picture books during the last two months that I'm going to do a separate post devoted to them.
[edit - here's that picture book post.]
[Also, here's a link to the December / January / February / March book post and here's all the other previous book posts.]
Some of the books I enjoyed reading in April and May (an odd mix) -
We Killed: The Rise of Women in American Comedy by Yael Kohen / Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier / No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy / Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life: Volume One by Bryan Lee O'Malley / Everything is Perfect When You're a Liar by Kelly Oxford / The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey / Housekeeping vs. the Dirt by Nick Hornby / A Sport and a Pastime by James Salter
