Listen, before we get started, I want to make sure we're all on the same page and pretending that I'm not writing this just a few short hours before midnight on the 8th of May. This whole post was written and posted a whole week ago, and something just went wrong with the internet and the date, okay?
As I said last month, I'm taking a couple months off of my focused history/heritage month reading and it's been nice just picking up whatever strikes my fancy. It's also helpful for my three bookclubs, which do not adhere to my themes like at all. This month I even get to do two re-reads for book club meetings (fortunately they are both books I very much enjoyed the first time around so I don't mind the idea of re-reading them). May is Asian/Pacific Islander Heritage month, and I am currently reading Shanghai Girls by Lisa See, but that will likely be my only themed book for the month.
