Quite a lot this month by my usual standards: My Cousin Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier Castle Dor by Daphne du Maurier Frenchman's Creek by Daphne du Maurier The Great Gatsby by Nikki Greenburg (graphic novel adaptation of the classic. The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy The Painted Veil by M. Somerset Maugham Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris. I'm pretty sure that's it... so seven books.

I feel less proud than last month because I did buy some books in May, but they were all second-hand: ;D - Catch-22 by Joseph Heller - Ethan Frome by Edith Warthon - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl - A Room with a View by E.M. Forster - Amrita by Banana Yoshimoto
