June reads

The End of the Affair- Graham Greene (started it in May)- Enjoyed this, but not so much the female point of view. Thought it was interesting that Greene had been in an affair and based the book on his experience.

Northanger Abbey- Jane Austen (started it in May) Still plodding through this....

The Iron Man- Ted Hughes A kids book, and very short at that,about an iron man who is feared but then becomes the hero. Interesting short read, 6/10

Wife in the North-Judith O'Reilly Entertaining non-fic about a city family moving to Northumberland.

Brideshead Revisited- Evelyn Waugh - not finished this yet, but will by the end of the month

Best of Black Lace women's erotica (!)- various These are saucy short stories that I bought out of curiousity!

Wall and Piece- Banksy I have suddenly become quite interested in Banksy since seeing one of his works when I was in London. This book is very interesting, shows lots of his work and also discusses the value of graffiti and its place in the modern world. (Mainly pictures)

What to Expect when you are Adopting- Reading this as it is something I felt like I needed to look into more. We may not have any more children, but it was interesting to read the process.
