So it's farewell to May and winter is beginning to make itself felt down under although those long evenings and cold wet days do offer the perfect excuse for lots of reading.
I don't seem to have needed any excuses in May. My total is way above normal but I think that's because at least 10 of them were 300p or less whereas normally I go for bigger books.
