Another thrilling month!! A couple here are on my list to read but will take me a while to reach the latest deMaio and want to get to Kristy Woodson Harvey’s latest as well.

It looks like you’ve had a fab reading month! I really want to read I Found You soon and also to get to The Housekeeper – hopefully I can make time very soon. Your review of The Perfect Stranger sold it to me so I must try and get a copy of that soon too. Hope May is as good a month, if not better, for you! Happy reading! 🙂

Thanks, Hayley, it was really hard to pick a favorite this month, as there were several contenders. The Housekeeper was really good, too, and there were so many more layers than I expected. I also really loved I Found You, and can safely say that Lisa Jewell does not disappoint. Enjoy!
