A Day of Small Things | Books I read in May & planning June TBR 2022 @adayofsmallthings | Uploaded June 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Hi it's Nicole. I participated in both #historicalfictionreadathon and #asianreadathon this month - probably a bit unwisely. Lesson learnt!
So here are all the books I read in May: one Japanese classic that is also a much anticipated Miyazaki animation film, one cheery Indian classic that is over 1400 pages long, one gothic English modern classic that I didn't get on well with, one #Shakespeare, one very highly rated novel about a Vietnamese family and, lastly, a memoir of a Chinese women author which unfortunately I didn't finish.
