Happy May everyone. Thank you as always, Meredith. I would be missing so many books if it weren’t for this list you do for us each month.
Happy May!
Wow, big release month! I’ve only read one of those books, but I could be tempted to try about twenty of them. 🙂 Thanks, Meredith!
I’m really curious about “Mrs Gardiner takes a hand” and “Kitty Bennet’s Midsummer”.
Thank you so much Meredith for compiling this monthly list. It’s so helpful to find interesting readings!
Spring has come to Madrid too 🙂
Great list! I am DESPERATE to get the ‘Jane Austen Escape Room Book’ but alas I have to wait until June.
It is bluebell season here, so very lovely to see them peeping up on the verges.
