I had expected to read more books last month as I was home all month. I suspect family history activities got in the way.
As we are off travelling shortly and will not have too much time to read I am pleased that I am ahead of the game in the Goodreads Reading Challenge
2025 Reading Challenge
I must have been in a generous mood last month as I awarded rare (for me) five stars to two titles on the list, The Paris Novel and The Diamond Eye.
Once again my month provided an eclectic mix of biography, history, fiction, murders and kids' books. Family was a theme in several of the works. I particularly enjoyed Unsettled as it made me think and reflect on Australian history and made me ponder on any interactions that may have occurred between my white and indigenous ancestors. Balcony over Jerusalem by John Lyons, a news journalist who keeps popping up on the ABC, providing me with a perspective on the ongoing situation in the Middle East. My four Libby accounts provided most of the eBooks I read in June.
BTW I also read a few that aren't yet listed on Goodreads.
