May Reads: So Hard to Choose, So I Picked Too Many!

 I'm always happy at the end of the month, because I get to craft my next month's reading list. It's usually swirling around in my head for at least a week before, but when I sit down to write my blog post, something always pops in that I forgot about. 

May is going to be such a busy month I am pretty sure it will go by in a blink. Graduation parties (two nephews graduating high school), yard work, lots going on at my job. And I've been super slow in Spring cleaning and organizing. Even my gym has a packed schedule for May and I daresay a few of the upcoming big workouts we do in May will probably leave me hobbling around like a fool. I'm also getting my second vaccine shot, so I had to work that in between some things I absolutely have to do--just in case I have any of the 24 hour blahs people have been talking about. Fingers crossed I get through it with no side effects. 

My reading list is once again ambitious and it's simply because I can't decide what can wait until June. So we'll see how much I can get done. I hope all of them, because I want to dig into every book right now and all at once. 

Here's my list for May:

So much buzz about this book. I had to buy it. A sheriff, a teen girl, and a past that comes back to test their faith in people. 

Another book I've had since last month and I cannot wait to dig in. Stunning cover art. A YA thriller about a young Ojibwe teen who undertakes a murder investigation on her own. 

You can catch her series The Lost Kitchen on Discovery.com. Erin French's memoir about finding her way back home after some rough times and establishing the famous Lost Kitchen in her hometown. 

A young black woman in Reconstruction Era Brooklyn chafes under her physician mother's desire to have her become a female doctor. 

I love novels about bees. Three strangers gather together on a honeybee farm in Oregon and find they're not so alone in life after all. 

A summer read that's perfect for vacation. A hurricane, a beautiful island, and a group of Hollywood actors set to film a blockbuster movie all come together in a thriller that uncovers the hidden motives of three women. 

May promises to be an eventful month, and these books promise to be some great reading! You can click on the blurbs under the cover art of each book to order through Amazon. Happy May everyone!
