Gosh. I don’t think I’ve ever done this well before – and definitely not on a nightshift month – which usually ends up in me splurging on books in the early hours! Instead – as you’ll see I acquired a lot of Netgalley books – which has pushed my unread folder on the Kindle to almost epic proportions. But I can ignore that because The Pile in the corner of the living room is smaller!
* Total includes some short stories (1 this month – Part 2 of A Place for Us by Harriet Evans – review here)
