May has been a rather trying month. In addition to the crappy weather bringing a couple of bouts of illness with it, I was very busy at work and also had to deal with two insurance issues (a slight flooding mishap and a minor car accident). All of this meant I had little time for the blog, making this one of the leanest months for reviews in over a decade (I didn’t even manage to get a Genji post out…). Still, I did eventually produce a few reviews, even if it was a slog at times, and I read some good books, too, with many enjoyable rereads. First, though, it’s numbers time – here are the stats ***** Total Books Read: 10 Year-to-Date: 53 New: 5 Rereads: 5 From the Shelves: 6 Review Copies: 2 From the Library: 2 Novels: 3 Novellas: 0 Short Stories: 4 Non-Fiction: 3 Non-English Language: 9 (3 German, 2 Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Icelandic, French) In Original Language: 4 (3 German, French) The Tale of Genji – Chapter by Chapter Come back next month ***** Books Reviewed in May were: 1)…
