"I'd been a model officer for almost all my career, but I had to join the Iudex to become a true criminal." The Tainted Cup
In Reading...
This month I... ate doughnuts with my college rival, pretended to be dating my ex, surfed with my siblings, built a bunker in the woods, befriended ghosts, solved the lighthouse mystery, remembered everything, counted the bridge scores, and infiltrated a vampire club.
The books of May with links to my thoughts on them:
Beach Read by Emily Henry
Happy Place by Emily Henry
Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid
The Bee Sting by Paul Murray
Ghost Tamer by Meredith R. Lyons
The Murder Game by Tom Hindle
The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett
Cards on the Table by Agatha Christie
A Tempest of Tea by Hafsah Faizal
Favourite read was The Tainted Cup because I just loved being back in another highly original Robert Jackson Bennett world. Can't wait for more from this series!

In Writing...
I've started writing a new novel! I'm so excited for this one. This month I wrote an 17k word outline, which is just, yeah, not my usual count for those things. I also started drafting and have the first 1000 words - and I super love them! It's exactly the kind of book I want to write at the moment. It's fantasy. It's regency. It's everything.
In Life...
May had a couple of bank holiday weekends which I think we did stuff on. There were some sunny outings for sure. Mostly life has been a series of baby vomit, coffee and buying Oscar tiny little new things to hold his interest.
